Stanwood Camano Rotary's
Annual Auction
COMING SOON! The fun begins on May 2, 2009 beginning at 5:00 at the Camano Senior and Community Center. Tickets are still available for $50. Contact us to get your while you can!
The 7th annual Stanwood Camano Rotary Club Auction is taking shape to be even better! Last year was a huge success raising more than $42,000 to support the on-going work of the service club.
From ten days in Hawaii to dinner at a local restaurant it is all available to the highest bidder! The event has both a silent and live auction making it suitable for anyone at any budget.
A draft listing of the items available for the 2008 Auction is available by clicking on the auction catalog to your left.
The auction is our major fundraising event allowing the club to put those funds to work in the community and around the world. Funds raised by the club may be matched once or twice by Rotary International and the regional Rotary District increasing the purchasing power of each contribution with approximately 30% of the total supporting global efforts such as polio eradication and dentistry for the people of Kenya.
A special focus this year will be placed on funding Project Warm which provides new winter coats for community families in need. Additional support for the Imagination Library will also be raised providing age-appropriate hardcover books to all youth aged birth to five located in the Stanwood Camano School District’s boundary. Both of these programs, and more, are offered at no charge to families thanks to the support gained in this event and other community partners.
The Stanwood Camano Rotary Club is a proud and passionate supporter of the Stanwood Camano community. The club believes that our best long-term investment is in supporting and nurturing stability and long-term personal growth. Your community Rotary Club provides necessary resources, scholarships and exchange student opportunities to the community and is part of one of the largest international humanitarian service organizations in the world with more than 1.2 million members world-wide working together to improve communities just like ours!
