The John M. Barry Boys & Girls Club of Newton’s 18th Annual Auction will be Friday, November 15, at the Club, 675 Watertown Street.
Guests will bid on exciting items, indulge in flavorful cuisine, meet our promising youth and experience first-hand how Great Futures Start Here!
There will be a ton of Red Sox memorabilia and tickets at this year’s event. Own a piece of history from our World Series Champions and earn some more bragging rights! Here’s a sneak peak at just a few of the great items:
David Ortiz Autographed World Series ’04/ ’07 Commemorative: David Ortiz, who has contributed to all three of the Red Sox’ recent championships, was named the most valuable player of this year’s series. He hit two home runs, knocked in six runs, scored seven more, batted .688 and had a staggering .760 on-base percentage. This shadow Box includes a baseball autographed by David Ortiz, Sports Illustrated magazine and photograph of the legend himself.
Donors: Friends of the Club
Autographed Shane Victorino Baseball: This is your chance to own a baseball signed by Red Sox right fielder, Shane Victorino! Returning to the lineup, he provided the key hit that essentially closed out the World Series and brought the championship home for the first time since 1918!
Donor: Boston Red Sox Foundation
Daniel Nava Autographed Baseball Bat: This bat has seen much better days – unlike the one in Game 5! Nava is only the fourth player in Major League Baseball history to hit a grand slam in his first major league at bat, and the second to do it on the first pitch.

This is a truly exciting year (not just because the Red Sox won the World Series!), but this is a first in the Club’s history on Watertown Street to be hosting the event at the Club. Information and tickets available online at the Boys & Girls Club website.
