Hello everyone.
Just a quick update after our silent auction. We were able to raise $1787 tonight and almost everyone came away with a memory to bring home. For those that don´t know, each mission has a silent auction where team members bring items from home to auction off during the mission. In addition, people purchase items in country that have special meaning to the team. Some amazing things were included tonight such as custom crafted jewelry, sunglasses, shirts and hats.
We will have a live auction tomorrow to really bring it home. This team is so generous and so giving, it is amazing. There are some special items for the live auction including an autographed flag.
We are having some issues with getting photos uploaded, but we will make sure to get as many as possible on in the morning.
I want to thank my friend Johanna for updating the blog tonight. She did a great job while I was coordinating the silent auction.
