We had three successful events last night. We thank our nonprofits for their trust, and our auctioneers for their talents: Isaac Schultz and team, Bret Walters, and Kurt Johnson. A special shout-out to all the players who had a collective hand in reaching a new milestone for their nonprofit—$2,000,000!! Amazing!!l

And congrats to our other team members for their participation or competitive runs: Isaac Schultz (contest judge and past champion); Dave Thompson (past champion who sold some items while the results were being tallied); Kurt (past champion) and Connie Johnson (event sponsors); Lake Boehm (contestant); and Andrew Molenkamp (Rookie contestant).

When you have a chance to make a difference every time you partner with a nonprofit; when you have a team that supports your vision and ex*****on; and when you have a banner year with a wide variety of community-building initiatives, it is time to celebrate BIG. Kurt Johnson Auctioneering certainly did last night: Team raffle, delicious food and drink, a private venue and concert, and of course, our hilarious White Elephant gift exchange stamped the punctuation mark and heart on 2023. What an honor to host.
