Last Saturday was Washington Bikes\u2019s 20th<\/sup> annual fundraising auction\u2014and what a fundraiser it was!\u00a0 Thanks to the generous support of our sponsors, donors, volunteers and the 285 friends of bicycling in attendance, we raised over $95,000 that evening. \u00a0Eric Mamroth and Chris Cameron returned as our auctioneer and master of ceremonies respectively. \u00a0Here’s a photo recap of the festivities:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Guests browsed the silent auction tables for choice items.<\/p><\/div>\n

Volunteers roamed the room selling Split the Pot raffle tickets.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

These delectable desserts raised over $8000.<\/p><\/div>\n

Bidding was lively and plentiful all evening.<\/p><\/div>\n

The “wizards” entered auction data all evening.<\/p><\/div>\n

The auction is a huge volunteer effort and we are grateful to the 70+ volunteers who help make this event a success. \u00a0These folks helped us with everything from data entry, packing and event set-up to registration, closing, check out, and tear down. \u00a0Thanks, guys!<\/p>\n
