The Dumas Community Center buzzed with activity as participants raised their paddles to win the bid for the live auction items at the Serendipity Benefit Auction Monday, Oct. 27, 2025. The Auction collected around $27,000 from ticket sales, cash donations, the live and silent auction and the sale of the centerpieces.
This is the second year for the Desha County Museum and the Dumas Chamber of Commerce to host the event. Editor's Note: The Dumas Clarion apologizes for the error in the October 29 article. We incorrectly named Desha County Judge Wayne Smith as Martin. We apologize for this error.
