Sports and entertainment memorabilia are among the items up for auction in the Douglas County Community Center Foundation's annual fundraiser. The fundraiser wraps up Dec. 15.
Will T-Swift’s “Anti-Hero” win the Record of the Year, or will she be toppled by one of the other seven nominees, including Miley Cyrus, Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo?
The top bidder for this year’s $9,000 prize could watch in person at the Feb. 4 Grammy’s in Los Angeles if they have the top bid at the Douglas County Community and Senior Center Foundation’s annual silent auction.

The Grammy trip includes three days and two nights at the Omni Los Angeles Hotel for two, bronze level seating at the Grammy’s and tickets to the after party. Already have plans for the 2024 weekend? You could go in 2025, according to the item details.
While the Grammy’s are the top prize, pricewise, there are more than 70 others that include golfing, skiing, cruises, trips to Italy, Hawaii or Jackson Hole or Disneyland. There’s also lots of authenticated and original sports and entertainment memorabilia.
Who knows? Someone might finally buy the naming rights for the center’s bathrooms away from longtime Community Services Director Scott Morgan.
The foundation is a registered charitable nonprofit organization that raises funds to add improvements to the county’s community centers.
