Minden St. Jude volunteer workers were at the Minden Civic Center Monday evening, setting up computer systems to take your orders and bids for the auction, which begins Thursday and runs through Sunday. Webster Parish Journal has been a proud silver sponsor/supporter of the auction every year since we have begun publishing almost five years ago.

From the volunteers of Minden’s auction to benefit St. Jude:

We have adopted a patriotic/champion theme for this year, as our country is celebrating its 250th birthday and the winter Olympics will be going on during our auction dates – CHAMPIONS FOR A CURE! We believe our St. Jude patients and their families and supporters are all Champions for St. Jude and that celebrating them during this time would be an exciting theme for 2026.

And like the athletes who give their all for a dream, our community comes together each year with strength, courage, and heart. And every donation, every volunteer hour, and every act of generosity brings us one step closer to victory – a cure for childhood cancer.

This year, we honor the spirit of perseverance.
We celebrate the champions among us.
And we fight for the ultimate gold medal: saving lives.

You can tune in via our Livestream at MindenStJude.com, on KASO 1240AM / KBEF 104.5FM, or on Optimum Channel 11 to catch all of the AUCTION ACTION. If you wish to place your raffle orders or put in board item bids over the phone, give us a call at 318-377-1100.
