Lake County Land Trust’s 2017 Annual Dinner & Silent Auction on Saturday, September 23, was a grand success! Thank you to all who attended, donated, volunteered, sponsored, and participated in any way!
The sold out event took place at Boatique Winery and was generously sponsored by Homestake Mining Co.: The Law Office of Dennis Fordham; Jonas Heating & Cooling; Katzoff & Riggs, LLP; Brad & Kathy Barnwell; Roberta & Harry Lyons; and John Wise & Evelyn Wachtel. Guests were excited to hear former Congressman Pete McCloskey, an environmental crusader, speak about the issues affecting our local environment. Attendees were also treated to several surprises such as a "tattoo" station with artist Ben vanSteenburgh II; Dr. Harry Lyon's introductory song for McCloskey; and a live auction component to the event with Supervisor Jim Steele as Auctioneer. This event is the Lake County Land Trust's main fundraiser for the year, and we're thrilled by the feedback that we've gotten about what a great time was had by all. Thanks to all who contributed to make this event a smashing success! Your support makes it possible for us to do what we do. |
