Silent Auction to Benefit the Hanten-Berger Scholarship Fund - Kiana Lodge

LKAA, in conjunction with the LK Foundation, will be holding a silent auction prior to this year's graduation ceremony on June 22nd, from 5:15-6:00 PM, at Kiana Lodge. 
 
The silent auction will benefit the Hanten-Berger Scholarship Fund, which allows LKAA to help defray some of the costs for deserving students from the incoming Leadership Kitsap Program.  Your participation will greatly enhance our ability to assist emerging leaders for the coming curriculum year.  We are looking for donations for this silent auction. 
 
If you have a silent auction donation for this event, please contact Ned Newlin or Kathy Nelson by June 8th.  We look forward to seeing many of our alumni at the graduation ceremony to support our newest graduates and alumni members!

Help Support LKAA
 
The legacy of Leadership Kitsap is the alumni. LKAA works hard throughout the year to plan social events, build the scholarship fund, and to keep the tradition and legacy of the program strong. The Leadership Kitsap Foundation Board of Directors relies on alumni to recruit for new class members, participate in Challenge Days, and to mentor current class members. Please support the alumni association by paying your $25 annual dues.
 
Go to  Pay LKAA Dues Now to pay online (designate LKAA dues) or you can send checks, made payable to LKAA, to 647 4th Street, Bremerton, 98337.
 
Thank you for your support and we'll see you at the Old Town Bistro on the 14th of May!
