BLUE HILL—On Saturday, September 19, Downeast Community Partners and At Home held a virtual auction as its seventh annual Round Robin Fundraiser. All proceeds will benefit the At Home program, a nonprofit organization whose mission is to provide in-home care and other services to area elders.
The remote, online fundraiser differed from those in years past, which took place at Blue Hill Country Club with an all-day round-robin tennis tournament. Coordinators, out of concern for the risk of COVID-19, canceled the sports program this time.
