The Annual Auction is by far our largest fundraiser of the year. \u00c2\u00a0Last year the auction brought in over $14,000. \u00c2\u00a0It is very important that we make sure that this event continues to happen. \u00c2\u00a0Please click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stellerschool712.org\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Document1.pdf\">HERE<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0to read more about funding at Steller.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">We are looking for at least 3-4 people who will step up to be the leaders of this project.<\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">These people would work together to plan, solicit donations from the Steller community and beyond, and organize our volunteers.<\/h3>\n<p>Currently, the same small group of people \u00c2\u00a0have been responsible for planning and organizing the auction for the past three years. \u00c2\u00a0We know how it is done and have gotten good at it. \u00c2\u00a0 It is time for us to pass the reins but if a team of people will step forward we will lead them through the entire process and be full time team members this year. We never have any trouble finding enough volunteers to donate items, bring food, set up and clean up, and do data entry. \u00c2\u00a0We also receive help from the 11th graders who help with work and organization. \u00c2\u00a0<strong><em>What we need are leaders<\/em><\/strong>. Time commitment includes weekly meetings for the 6 weeks prior to the auction and one or two meetings before that. \u00c2\u00a0There are two work days the week before the auction and at least 12 hours the day of the auction. \u00c2\u00a0Extra hours here and there are required depending on specific tasks. The auction is only 2 months away (that is plenty of time) so we need to hear from people in the next week. \u00c2\u00a0Contact Rebecca Johnson at <a href=\"mailto:beckinak@gmail.com\">beckinak@gmail.com<\/a> or 240-8907 or Wendy Woolf at <a href=\"mailto:paww@alaska.net\">paww@alaska.net<\/a>. <em>If no one steps forward the auction will not be happening this year and the expertise that has been accrued will be lost.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Steller Parent Group has become very instrumental in fundraising at Steller. \u00c2\u00a0Last year the Parent Group brought in over $20,000 to help with programs and activities at Steller including Souper Steller, funding travel intensive scholarships, funding Passages and Peer taught classes, buying mats for the acro-balance club, technology purchases, doing a complete over haul on [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":41,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11464","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-announcements"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stellerschool712.org\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11464","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stellerschool712.org\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stellerschool712.org\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stellerschool712.org\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/41"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stellerschool712.org\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11464"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.stellerschool712.org\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11464\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stellerschool712.org\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11464"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stellerschool712.org\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11464"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stellerschool712.org\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11464"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
