After the absence of the Student Auction last year, it was brought back again this year and had successful turnout. Starting off with the Prize Wheel during an assembly, students began the bidding fever that carried over into the actual event Friday night.
With donations ranging from college t-shirts to various types of food to having Mr. Shafer as a servant for a day, the event raised a large amount of money with its different and fun donations that were sold to the highest bidder of the night. The total of the night ended up being over $1,700 which will be used by the student government to put on more events for the student body.
People who attended had a good time. Austin Daya ‘18, said he “had a blast” and the highlight of his night was winning Mr. Chace’s signed CD. Government members also thought the event went well. Molly Leahy ‘19, student government president, said that after the auction, “the next big discussion is what to do with it, and we have some ideas bouncing around.”
Overall, the Student Auction was a fun and successful event and will hopefully continue to be held every year.
