10th Annual Dinner Auction

Celebrating a decade of dedication to Parkrose students, ‘Denim & Diamonds’ was a hit! Held April 27th 2013 at the Airport Holiday Inn, we were able to raise almost $10,000 for AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination). That money will be used, among other things, for college field trips. Some of the auction items included a 5 foot tall custom made bird feeder, a flower bouquet a month for a year, Michael Allen Harrison Concert at the Historic Roadhouse in Corbett, a compound archery bow and custom crafted diamond jewelry. No auction is complete without the fun dessert dash and heads and tails game!

Thank you to everyone who contributed or purchased an item at this year’s auction. Special thanks to our sponsors Mid County Memo, Bradford’s, Elmers, Pacific NW Federal Credit Union, US Bank, LEAP (Life Education for Adults of Parkrose), Dowa and the Historic Parkrose Revival project.
