💚 Bid to fight cancer. Support a friend. Make a difference.

The online silent auction benefiting VenuWorks of Oshkosh/Oshkosh Arena Executive Director Andy Linton officially opens for bidding at noon Wednesday, Aug. 5, but you can register today and get a sneak peek. You’ll find more than 50 incredible auction items donated by employees, local businesses, organizations and generous community members.

From Wisconsin sports memorabilia and ticket packages to home décor, outdoor favorites, comfort items and unique one-of-a-kind experiences, there's truly something for everyone.

If you're a Packers fanatic, a Brewers fan, a Wisconsin Herd supporter or someone who doesn't follow sports but follows a life of kindness, you'll find plenty worth bidding on.

The Fox Valley has shown incredible resilience and compassion over the past week, and now we have another opportunity to rally around one of our own.

As Andy and his family continue their fight against stage 4 lymphoma and work through the final six weeks of chemotherapy treatment, every bid helps ease the financial burden and reminds them they are not facing this battle alone.

Together, we can turn generosity into hope, support and strength for Andy, his wife Tracy and the rest of his family.

Ready to get started? Scan the QR code or visit galabid.com/between-you-me-the-f to register and preview the auction items now.

The auction closes at 8:45 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 8, during Andy's in-person benefit at the arena from 5 to 9 p.m. You don't have to be present to win - but we hope you do join us as we have tons of great fun and entertainment happening for kids through adults!

This Saturday, we come together for VenuWorks of Oshkosh/Oshkosh Arena Executive Director Andy Linton.💚

If you know Andy, you know he often uses the phrase "Between you, me and the fencepost," so we thought we'd tell you all and the fencepost that "cancer picked the wrong fight."

Join us from 5 to 9 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 8 for Between You, Me & the Fencepost... Cancer Picked the Wrong Fight! as we rally around Andy Linton and his family with an evening full of fun, community and support.

🎟️ Suggested donation: $10 per adult (children & teens free). We're keeping this low so that you spend more on the auction, raffles, food, drinks and more inside, as all of that supports this cause!
🍽️ Dinner buffet available
🥤 Unlimited soft drink option
🍺 Full cash bar
🎶 Live music from North Wind & The Sun
🎁 Silent auction, raffles, wine wall, co****le, basketball, sumo suit wrestling, arm wrestling and more!

Look for the link to the auction to come out tomorrow - with bidding set to open at noon on Wednesday. More than 40 great packages thanks to so many generous donors here in our community.

Whether you know Andy personally or simply want to support a great cause, your attendance can make a real difference. Let's pack the house, raise some funds and show Andy and his wife Tracy what a community of friends, family, bikers and brothers can do when one of our own needs us. 💪🧡

Nice work, Oshkosh! The two-day Operation: Valley Strong Food & Supply Drive yielded this - a full truck. And… this was after a local church came to restock its supplies. Generosity, care, compassion: That’s what makes us Valley Strong! 💪🏻

When our neighbors needed us most, the residents of the Fox Valley, Green Bay, and the surrounding areas showed what community is all about. Thanks to your incredible generosity, Operation Valley Strong collected thousands of dollars and much-needed relief items to help families recovering from the tornadoes.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who donated, volunteered, and spread the word. And special thanks to our amazing partners, Midwest Carriers, Festival Foods, Oshkosh Arena, Cattails Supper Club and everyone who helped make this effort possible.

Together, we proved that when our communities come together, we are .
