Please join Conservation Northwest for our 5th annual "Hope for a Wild Future" auction in this beautiful outdoor setting to celebrate the gains we’ve made together protecting and connecting wild places from the Washington Coast to the BC Rockies.
Program
The stars of the evening are lynx, bears, wolves, wolverines, and more! Executive director Mitch Friedman will highlight the rich diversity in northeast Washington accompanied by an engaging multimedia presentation, Wildlife of the Columbia Highlands, from the Cascades to the Rockies. Full evening's schedule.
Food & Drink
Mingle during the silent auction and enjoy delicious hot and cold appetizers, local organic Fish Tale Ale beer, Centerra and Robert Mondavi wines from Alaska Distributors Co. Then join us under the tent for a fabulous multi-course wild salmon or northwest mushroom dinner by Rainforest Catering and Smoking Loon and Pepperwood Grove wines from Don Sebastiani & Sons.
Auction
Silent and live auctions include exciting trips and getaways, a selection of fine wines, outdoor gear, excursions with biologists, work by local artisans, family experiences, and certificates for fine restaurants and entertainment. Our on-line catalog will be updated regularly.
Children’s activities
Children age 5 to 12 will be treated to special activities during the silent auction, and a Zoofari tour of one of the wildlife exhibits, followed by their own buffet dinner and play time in the Zoomazium. Children over 12 are considered adults and eat with their parents. We regret we that we cannot accommodate children under 5.
