Rutland Dismas House is pleased to announce that the 30th Rutland Dismas House Annual Dinner Auction will be held on Sunday, May 22nd, at the Spartan Arena in Rutland, Vermont. This year is the first dinner auction since the pandemic, so the theme this year is "Welcome Back!" This is also the first dinner auction since the opening of the Women's Dismas House in Rutland last year. Doors will open at 3:00 PM, and the program will begin at 4:30 (auction at 5:00, dinner at 6:00).
During the past 32 years, Rutland Dismas House has been instrumental in the lives of over 750 residents by providing a safe and sober home in order to reconcile former prisoners with society and society with former prisoners.
Rutland Dismas House is pleased to have as its speaker Dr. Emily Salisbury. Dr. Salisbury is an alumna of Castleton University and is currently an Associate Professor and the Director of the Utah Criminal Justice Center. Rutland Dismas House will award its highest award, the Fr. Jack Hickey Award, to the Vermont Women's Fund for their valued support during the opening of the Women's Dismas House. Other dedicated volunteers will also receive awards.
There will be approximately 30 items in our live auction this year, as well as over 200 items in the silent auction! Our MC will be Rutland Dismas House Director Eric Maguire, and our auctioneer will be local radio host "Uncle" Dave Tibbs.
Tickets to the event are $75 and must be purchased by May 14th; no tickets will be sold at the door. For tickets or information, call (802) 775-5539, email geraldine@dismasofvt.org, or go to https:/www.dismasofvt.org/houses/rutland-dismas-house/.
