Mark’s Memories of the Auction
By Guest Contributor
For 50 years, the Annual Auction has raised needed funds for Belleville Mennonite School. While the
venue has undergone many changes throughout the years, one thing about the sale has not: For 50
years, Mark Glick has been the auctioneer. Mark shared some his memories from the many years of
auctioneering.
In 1965, the first school sale was simply a cattle auction which was held at the Belleville Livestock Market.
Farmers donated cows and the proceeds from the Auction went to BMS to help with operating expenses.
After several years, the Auction moved in to the produce building at the Belleville Livestock Market when
items other than cattle began to be auctioned as well. Merle Yoder hooked up stoves in the produce
building to make pancakes to sell for breakfast. The Auction soon outgrew the produce building and was

Mark’s Memories of the Auction
Continued from page 3
re-located to the Reedsville Youth Park, where it was held until 1984. During those years, the quilt auction
was started. At its peak, the quilt auction included around 30 quilts a year.
Not until after the gymnasium was built did the location of the Auction move to the school and it has been
held there ever since.
One of Mark’s favorite memories was the year someone donated a very large cake designed to look like
the school building. Erie Renno bought the cake and then gave it to Mark. Mark thought it should be cut
and served right there at the auction, but Erie convinced Mark to take it home instead. So Mark and his
wife took it home and shared large portions of cake with their neighbors.
One year, Brian Glick and Alan Metzler flew south to get the strawberries for strawberry pies. On the
return trip, the plane experienced some trouble and Alan decided to land. In order to get the strawberries
to the school on time, a van was sent to bring the strawberries the rest of the way.
For many years, the Auction was held on Saturday only. The day of the Auction would begin with
breakfast served in the cafeteria followed by the auction of a large variety of donated items. Eventually,
gift certificates were included in the Auction, which added to the length of the day. For the past couple
of decades, it has begun on Friday evening with dinner and the Gift Certificate Auction. Mark says making
this move to Friday was beneficial to keep Saturday’s activities from getting too long, while also allowing
the certificates to be sold before the bulk of the auction on Saturday. When asked what should be
done in the future to ensure the success of the Auction, Mark responded, “Keep up with the times, and
keep on working.” So from its humble beginnings as a Cattle Auction, to the meals, strawberry pies,
quilts, certificates, variety of donated items, baked goods and the many other activities and items sold, it
appears that Mark’s advice has already been taken to heart. Here’s to another 50 years!

BMS 2015 ANNUAL AUCTION - 50TH ANNIVERSARY
50
Years
Bidding to Benefit...
for 50 Years
By Valerie (Kanagy) Reed, ’01,
development director
Bidding to Benefit. That’s the theme
for this year’s 50th Anniversary
celebration of the Annual Auction,
or “School Sale,” as it’s known to
most folks who are familiar with the
event. The success of the Auction
over the years could not have been
possible without the Lord’s hand
directing the hard work of volunteers
and the generosity of the donors and
bidders. The Auction has become
a family tradition, a weekend of fun
and a weekend of enjoyable service
for many families. Ultimately, the
intent of this fundraiser has been to
meet the budgeted goal and allow
tuition to stay as low as possible for
families. In an April 1973 newspaper
article board president at the time,
John E. Zook, stated, “The total
operating budget for the school is
$95,000 this year. The tuition paid by
the parents covers about 60% of the
operating budget. We lean heavily on
the proceeds from the annual school
sale to make up the balance.” Today,
in 2015, the statements made by Mr.
Zook still hold true for BMS and the
Annual Auction.
The first Auction was held on April
10, 1965 at the Belleville Livestock
Barn. The sale only featured donated
dairy cattle. The auction continued
at the “Sale Barn” from 1965-1975.
The Cattle Auction continues to
be a major part of the sale every
other year. This auction alone in
the 1970’s and 1980’s brought an
average of $8,100.00. Starting in the
1990’s the Cattle Auction averaged
over $20,000.00. In 2013 the Cattle
Auction brought in $19,000.00.
BMS 2015 ANNUAL AUCTION - 50TH ANNIVERSARY
An interesting story from the first Annual Auction came from
Marvin Peachey, current BMS maintenance director and BMS
Class of 1960 graduate. He reported that Herbert King, father
to BMS students at the time, donated a young colt and a local
dairy farmer, Mark S. Yoder, bought it. Many of the youngsters
at the auction wanted it so Mark allowed the children to put
their names in a hat and have one name drawn: a winner to
receive the colt. Marv’s daughter, Gloria (Peachey) Kauffman’s,
’81, name was drawn. The Peachey’s took the colt home and
the family named it “Lucky Star.”
From 1976-1983, the Auction was held at the Mifflin County
Youth Park in the exhibit hall known to locals as the “green
building.” One of the original leaders of the Auction at that
time was Enid Yoder. Enid and her husband John, sent all of
their children to BMS until they graduated. She utilized her
expertise in cooking, baking and planning to coordinate many
of the food functions for the Auction in the early days.
Enid reported that having the Auction at the Youth Park required
extra labor to transport kettles, pots, pans, paper products,
stoves and all of the items needed to put on the Auction. Enid
recalled that they made beef and chicken pot pie complete
with thick homemade pot pie noodles in the current conference
room of the green building. She said that it was very difficult
to keep up with the demand. “People would come with gallon
buckets and request them to be filled with pot pie for their takeout dinner!” She remembers “girls” feverishly cooking vegetable
and chicken noodle soup over coal-oil stoves. Enid suggested
one year that they make fresh hoagies. They certainly made
them fresh – they sliced lunch meat on the premises on a meat
slicer that was transported from the BMS cafeteria. They sliced
the tomatoes and lettuce fresh too!
It was actually Enid’s suggestion that sparked the move from
the Mifflin County Youth Park to the BMS gymnasium. When
the Auction began in 1969, BMS did not have a large gymnasium
to host the event until 1978 when a brand new high school
building was constructed. Enid thought the gym would be
a wonderful place to house the event. She took her idea to
the president of the Board of Trustees at the time, John Zook.
He said, “We can move it as long as you have pancakes and
sausage for breakfast!” The next year the Auction was at BMS
and pancakes and sausage were served for breakfast!
The Auction was a highlight for many families and especially
children. Gwen (Yoder) Renno, current parent of four BMS
children, food services director at the school and ’96 graduate,
recalls, “It was a greatly anticipated event for our family.” Stan
Miller who worked as the development director at BMS at one
time remarked, “I remember when I took my grandson, Colin
11
Peachey, to the school sale. He was just a little guy. With arms
upraised, Colin appeared to be blessing everyone as he rode
around on my shoulders.” Colin is now a senior at BMS.
“I remember children running everywhere!” a former BMS
parent recalled. “As a BMS student, a highlight of the school
year was going to the School Sale to meet up and socialize with
classmates,” one alumnus remembered. She also remembers
having water battles behind the high school building and eating
herself sick from sweets at the candy stand. Brian Yoder, ’00
graduate, reported, “I remember helping mom (Arlene (Hartzler)
Yoder, ’70 graduate) buy the candy and pick out which boxes
of baseball cards to buy for the candy stand...then on sale day
spending all my money on baseball cards!”
When thinking about the Auction, one cannot leave out the
Quilt Auction. This auction is a major drawing point for the
event and has been since its inception. In 1978, the total quilt
proceeds brought over $2,500.00 with the average price at
$225.00. Compare that to the 2012 proceeds of $13,000.00.
An article from the County Observer in the early 1970’s states:
A 50-patch U.S. quilt with each block embroidered with the
official flower and bird of a state will be sold. It was made by
Mrs. Ida Kanagy who completed an identical one for the school
sale last year. (last year she said “If it brings over $100.00 I will
make another one for next year.”) “Since it did sell for over that
figure last year, I made a second one. But I’m not talking so loud
(the next) time,” she said. The many hours spent in making this
quilt was apparent when Mrs. Kanagy said she had worked a
half of one day to embroider one of the patches. This particular
quilt brought in $246.00 at the 8th annual Auction which was
the highest amount yet paid for a quilt at the BMS Auction up
to that time.
Many, many talented ladies spent hundreds of hours over the
years stitching masterpieces for the school! Each winter they
gather in the basement of Valley View Retirement Community’s
Oakwood Center to work on the quilts. What a tremendous
and humble investment these ladies have made over the years!
Mishaps and last minute arrangements are bound to occur with
an event the size of the BMS Auction. Debbie Yoder co-chaired
the Auction alongside her husband, Dale, ’79, from 2000-2003
and Shelby Hartzler along with her husband, Rodney, ’93, were
co-chairs, both recalled situations that could have turned out
negatively, but resulted in everything working out. Debbie
recounts, “One year Marie (Peachey) Byler, ’64, was still working
in the kitchen. On Friday when we left, we thought everything
was taken care of.” She continued, “During the middle of the
night, Marie woke up and realized no one had picked up the
sausage for the Saturday breakfast. She called Lewis Peachey
from AJ Peachey’s Meats to see if Lewis could open the store for
her. Lewis did just that. Marie picked the sausage up and took
it to the school. It was there in time to be fried for breakfast.

BMS 2015 ANNUAL AUCTION - 50TH ANNIVERSARY
She knew what needed to be done, and rather than call someone
else, or not worry about it, she took care of the issue.”
Shelby remembers receiving a phone call from former co-chair
Dena Stauffer on the Thursday before the Auction reporting that
AJ Peachey Meat’s had burnt to the ground during the night.
That particular year AJ Peachey’s was going to prepare the BBQ
chicken for the Friday evening meal. Shelby said, “By the time
Dena called us she had already talked with Bonnie Peachey, who
owned Whitehall Store at the time along with her husband, Don,
’78, and arranged for her to order in the chicken. She even had
people lined up to prepare it!”
Ann (Renno) Kanagy, ’62, former Auction chair and former BMS
superintendent, development director and parent, said, “I recall
the first year we sold hot sausage sandwiches. Breakfast was
served, but there was so much sausage left, we decided to add
hot sausage sandwiches to the lunch menu immediately. We went
to Taylor’s IGA and bought a large amount of green peppers and
onions to sauté, and then began serving hot sausage sandwiches.
From then on we always tried to be certain we had enough sausage
to serve with breakfast and also as hot sausage sandwiches.”
Alan, ’81, and Jill (Kauffman) Metzler, ’83, current supporters,
Auction sponsors and parents of three BMS graduates, served as
co-chairs from 1997-1999 and made arrangements to purchase
strawberries from Florida and eventually deliver them to the school
by flying them here in Alan’s personal airplane. One particular
year there was a mechanical issue with his plane and Alan wasn’t
able to make the return flight home, so he rented a large van and
drove the strawberries to the school in time for the Auction.
Another important part of the School Sale is the food. Whoopie
pies, moon pies, hoagies, hot sausage sandwiches, ice cream, and
strawberry pies have always enticed buyers to enjoy good meals
and treats. In earlier days, individual freezers of ice cream were
made. In 1967 it was reported that 20 freezers of homemade ice
cream were sold! Soft serve is now sold and is a big hit. The bake
stand in the early years was overflowing with wonderful homemade
breads, pies, cookies and other goodies. Today’s auctions feature
specialty baked goods by the likes of Enid, Rhoda Byler, Shelby
Hartzler, Rachel Swartzentruber, Virginia (Peachey) Renno (’71)
and Terri (Zook) Thompson, ’96. Four dozen of Rhoda’s chocolate
whoopie pies went for $210.00 in 2013 and two dozen of Enid
Yoder’s homemade pecan sticky buns went for $135.00 in the
same year!
One year Sadie Byler suggested that fresh strawberry pies be sold.
The food committee that year traveled to Harrisburg to a food
show and taste tested the pie gel which was going to be used
in the pies. The pies were a great addition and continue to have
tremendous appeal.
The commitment of volunteers working behind the scenes is
invaluable. Irene (Kauffman) Shrock, ’59, worked in the school
BMS 2015 ANNUAL AUCTION - 50TH ANNIVERSARY

office as the secretary for decades and is an excellent example of someone serving behind the scenes. She
remembers hand writing the bidder numbers with permanent markers, making seating charts and counting
all of the money at the conclusions of each auction. When asked what stands out in her mind about this
event, Irene replied, “It was amazing to me to see how people came together to get the work done.”
Sallie and the late Merle Yoder were an integral part of this fundraising tradition. Sallie remarked, “We
looked forward to helping. Our involvement was really worth it. We enjoyed it a lot.” She added, “Those
were the good years.” Today, Merle’s seat is auctioned off at the beginning of the Auction.
Debbie Yoder made similar remarks, “When we served, we were so impressed with the volunteers and their
willingness to help. I loved to stand back and watch everyone working and getting along the day of the sale.
People knew their jobs, and the sale ran smoothly because they cared about their job and were willing to
work.” She continued, “I think that is what we loved the most about being the chairmen, was working with
the patrons, getting to know new people and simply working together for the good of the school.”
BMS students have helped in numerous ways over the years too. Often high school students have served
breakfast and lunch, worked in the kitchen and served in other areas. Juli (Yoder) Sunderland, ’95, said,
“I remember Grandpa Yoder (Arthur) clerking for the auction…we’d run food to him when he was ready
to eat…I remember taking him a hot dog several years.” She added, “When we were in elementary we’d
make big poster board signs to advertise the foods and drinks for sale.” .” Juli’s sister Gwen Renno, ’95,
reported, “When our parents were on the sale committee, we had the “privilege” of coming here at 5:00 in
the morning to help get everything ready for Saturday’s big day.”
The Auction is open to the public and has welcomed thousands of community members including folks
from the surrounding counties and the local Amish. One community member commented, “I look forward
to the Sale each year.” “I come for the food!” another community member added.
Local friend, George Mohler, is always at the Auction. Sallie reminisced about Merle and other friends,
like George, who decided to buy the first strawberry pie that was auctioned each year. Merle and George
would conspire together about how much each was going to bid and who would end up with the pie.
The generosity in this act was a great way to start off the auction, and brought a sense of excitement and
amusement to the crowd, especially on a few occasions when other individuals in attendance understood
what was happening and decided to make Merle pay just a bit more!
Remarkably, Mark Glick has served as the auctioneer at all 50 of the Auctions! Dale Gibboney helped as an
auctioneer for many years until more recently when Brian Glick joined Mark.
Current superintendent, Starla (Byler) Fogleman, ’77, remarked “It was an important social event for me as a
child and is still an occasion I look forward to.” She continued, “It’s a significant fundraiser for us here at BMS
but is equally important as a celebration of family and friendship. It’s almost like a spring Homecoming!”
Thank you to each volunteer, donor, and bidder for all of your contributions throughout the years! The
annual Auction is an event that requires God’s blessing and the hands and hearts of many.
Lee Yoder served as the Annual Auction’s nightwatchman from
1978-2012. BMS is very grateful for Lee’s committed acts of
service to the school over the past four decades! Lee is a Godly,
giving man; he has visited 28 countries on mission trips and has
always felt it is important to share God’s love with those who
need it. When someone asks him how he is doing he replies,
“2-4-16.” What he means is found in II Corinthians 4:16, “The
outward man is wasting away, but the inward man is being
renewed day by day.” Thank you, Lee, for serving BMS in this way!

Use this information for buying the right size
quilt for your bed. Consider the size of the
mattress, the amount of drop & the desired
amount of pillow tuck. Mattress width & length
are standard:
Twin – 39” x 75”
Double – 52” x 74”
Queen – 60” x 80”
King – 78” x 80”
Mattress thickness varies, as does the height of
beds from the floor, and the recommended drop
ranges from 15” to 21”. Another option is to put
a dust ruffle around the edge of smaller quilts so
it reaches almost to the floor.
Quilts are not listed in the order they will be
sold. Lists will be available the day of the sale.
Quilt sizes are approximate. Many are prequilted size.
