Friends of the Roth family have organized a silent auction fundraiser for this Saturday, Oct. 1, 6-8 p.m. at The Vine in Coralville. All proceeds will go to the Lucy Jane Roth Medical Fund. Lucy, 2, is the sister of Jake Roth, a current Lucas student. She was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor in August and is currently undergoing treatment at University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics and Children's Memorial Hospital in Chicago. You can read more about Lucy and the Roths in today's Press-Citizen and Gazette.

  • Autographed sports memorabilia - footballs, jerseys, hockey puck, posters, shoes, and more from many different teams: Iowa, Nebraska, Penn State, NHL, NFL, NBA
  • Restaurant, store, and services gift certificates
  • Gift baskets
  • Art and collectible items, and much more
