Congratulations to Dolly Parton fans Sabrina Taylor and Tabitha Hall of Gatlinburg, TN for placing the winning bid for Dolly’s contribution to this year’s Evening of Elegance fund-raising auction to benefit the Dr. Robert F. Thomas Foundation with an amazing $75,000 donation to win Dolly’s “5 To 9” prize package! Donors came from all over the world including Scotland to try and take home the right for one couple to arrive at 5 p.m. at Dolly’s legendary Tennessee Mountain Home, enjoy a private tour of the house (with 10 additional guests) followed by a barbeque and bluegrass concert hosted by Dolly, spend the night in Dolly’s adjacent guest house (just the two winners), and have Dolly prepare and serve them breakfast the next morning at 9 a.m. Taylor and Hall surpassed them all with their record-breaking bid, making them responsible for more than half of the $140,000 raised at the event! Dolly serves as honorary chairperson of The Doctor Robert F. Thomas Foundation, which promotes healthcare in Sevier County, TN, and was named for the country missionary doctor who delivered her in January 1946.
