NOLS Launches On-Line Auction – screamin’ deals for a great cause

September 16, 2005

Anniv_logo_smAs part of NOLS’ 40th Anniversary celebration, and with the generous help of numerous businesses and individuals, we’ve launched our first on-line auction. Proceeds go toward renovation of the historic Noble Hotel’s mezzanine— to be christened in Paul Petzoldt’s honor. Petzoldt founded NOLS as a non-profit in 1965.

Auction items run the gamut—from time in vacation properties, to outdoor gear, to mountain and fishing trips, to books, posters, jewelry and more. Click here to see the cool items. Bidding gets you great stuff and helps NOLS at the same time. If you’ve just cleaned out your closet and have an old Rembrandt, Picasso, or other interesting relics that you’d consider donating to the NOLS auction, drop us an email note— we’d love to add to our growing collection.

So dump out yer piggy bank, wander the auction site, email us your bid and start checking “done” on your holiday gift lists.
