Silent Auction Date: April 7, 2025
One of the great additions to our beloved Sunday evening El Presidente Party was the introduction, 17 years ago, of the DC Silent Auction.
Hundreds of cowboys and cowgirls gather at Wickenburg’s famous RANCHO DE LOS CABALLEROS for our annual western gala the night before we parade out of town. For a lot of folks, this is the biggest party during a week’s worth of parties. It’s a very special social event, an opportunity to pick up some memorabilia, gifts, and gear, and to support the Ride.
Run by Don Lawson, Ken Loyst and a hardy gang of DC volunteers, the Silent Auction regularly raises north of $14,000 from the sale of 100-plus western items that are on display.
