The Far West Racing Association Silent Auction Barbara Bryant, Secretary of FWRA and VP of Membership for FWSA (membership@fwsa.org) is
holding an online auction to sell several items left from their Silent Auction held April 10th
at the championships at Mammoth. We didn't want these items to go to waste,
so this is our attempt to reach those who didn't make it to Mammoth,
but still may want a good deal. A portion of the funds will go to the Far West Ski Association's Athletic Scholarship Fund.
We donate each year to the fund for J1-J3 racers (J stands for junior).
Last year FWSA had thirteen junior racers we donated to, so this year we will hopefully
have more money to use. We also use a portion of the funds to run the championships. The description of items is below, along with their value and a minimum bid. The minimum bids
are guidelines. All bids will be accepted. You could score a great deal. Deadline for bids is May 6. The process is: 1) Send Barbara your bid at membership@fwsa.org. See attached form for latest bids. 2) Winning bids will be announced May 6. 3) The winner sends a check made out to FWRA 12741 Peregrine Dr. Truckee, CA 96161.
Payment must be by check. 4) Barbara will send to the winning bidder the documentation for the item.
Contact Barbara if you have questions. Please email to all of your friends, club members, racers, and skiers! You can
