Jason Hoggart fundraiser at REACH raises over $40,000 in live auction alone

At a special benefit for Jason Hoggart, a Londesborough-based farmer who suffered a debilitating stroke late last year, at the Regional Equine and Agricultural Centre of Huron (REACH) in Clinton, there was plenty to see and do, including a silent auction of nearly 300 items and a live auction that, alone, raised over $40,000 for Hoggart and his family. However, the event, at its core, was all about roping. So, when everyone had spent their money, there was roping to be done.     (John Stephenson photo)
