Katy Perry Autographed Guitar to be Auctioned at Boys and Girls Club Fundraiser

Support a great cause and have a great night at the Auction Stampede October 25 at 6 p.m. at the Barona Resort & Casino.

The featured item at this year's Auction Stampede benefit for East County Boys and Girls Club is a Katy Perry autographed "Baby" Taylor Guitar. How much would you donate for the guitar, and more importantly, to support a "positive place for kids"?

It's a perfect fit- Perry plays Taylor Guitars on tour and the East County Boys and Girls Club in Santee is only a mile from the Taylor showroom and factory. The pop star signed guitar is one of many sweet auction items at the event, including a stay at a New York condo for four, a Whoodle puppy, four nights with airfare to Puerto Rico and more.

The event begins October 25 at 6 p.m. at the Barona Resort & Casino. The evening includes a silent and live auction, dinner and drinks. Tickets for the event start at $100 and can be purchased here.

The Clubs have offered a safe haven to children between the ages of 6–18 in El Cajon, Lakeside, La Mesa and Santee since 1961 providing an escape from drugs and gang activity and offering a “home away from home.” The Boys and Girls Club works to enable all young people, especially those from disadvantaged circumstances, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.
