Sweet Treats for a Historic Cause: Annual Christmas Candy Auction to Help Fix Mayo Free Press Building

MAYO, FL — Residents of Lafayette County have a unique opportunity to satisfy their holiday cravings this season while helping preserve a vital piece of local history. On Monday, December 22, the Lafayette County Historical Society will host its "Christmas Candy Auction," a virtual fundraiser dedicated to powering the next phase of the iconic Mayo Free Press building restoration.

Bidding for a Sweet Cause

You don’t even have to leave the house to join the fun! The auction will be held entirely online from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

According to organizers, all the action will take place directly on the Lafayette County Historical Society Facebook page (not the specific "Event" page). Locals are invited to visit the main page, browse the photos of tasty treats, and place their bids in the comments throughout the day.

Opening the Doors Soon

The Historical Society has ambitious plans for the future. Their goal is to have the old Mayo Free Press building fully restored by the end of 2026. This auction offers a delicious way for the community to help make that vision a reality.
