Every fall, we host an online auction to raise funds to support our mission of preserving, restoring, and enjoying the natural world through education and action. We rely on donations of items from community members and businesses to make this a successful fundraiser.
If you have an item or two to donate, please bring it to the Case Nature Center at Cool Spring Preserve in Charles Town, WV, Tuesday-Friday between 9:30 am – 3:00 pm. If that doesn’t work for your schedule, please get in touch with Ellen Kinzer at Ellen@PotomacAubudon.org for other options.
Examples of items and experiences we accept:
- Artwork
- Jewelry
- Outdoor equipment including tents, boats,
- Pottery, painting, or yoga classes
- Specialty books
And the list goes on! If you have a question about an item you would like to donate or if it is too large to bring in, please contact Ellen at the email above or call our office at 681-252-1387.
This year’s auction will be open from October 28 to November 5. So even if you are unable to donate anything, make sure to participate by biding on items! A link to the auction site will be posted here, as well as on our social media pages and in our newsletter, Heads Up! when it is ready for viewing.
