The Holmes County Home’s annual Benefit Auction is happening this year on September 19th and 20th, on the hill behind the county home. The two-day event, which serves as one of the home’s biggest fundraisers of the year, will feature many activities, including volleyball and cornhole tournaments, as well a horseback trail ride. There will also be furniture and quilt auctions and a bake sale. The Holmes County Home is located on State Route 83, south of Holmesville.
