Cascade Leadership Challenge Benefit Auction A Huge Success!

Thanks from the youth and young adults of CLC!

Last night Cascade Leadership Challenge hosted its biggest event ever! With nearly 170 people in attendance, we raised nearly $28,000 to support CLC. Proceeds from the event will fund our core youth development programs for Seattle-area teens and our team headed to Denali this June. Your generosity will help keeps us going another year and allow us to keep mountaineering, rafting, climbing, backpacking, and exploring the great Pacific Northwest.

Needless to say, this event could not have happened without the generous support of our CLC auction committee, board of directors, families, and community businesses and organizations. We want to also thank the Woodland Park Zoo and Lancer Catering for their help in putting this event together. A BIG shout-out to the 25-strong youth member service corps who helped put this event together. These volunteers worked around-the-clock all week to sort and catalog items, assemble our centerpieces, and bake items for the dessert dash, in addition to their help the night of the event.

If you missed the action, or can't get enough of CLC, we'll be holding another fundraiser May 19 at Pecado Bueno. This event will be another Rock Paper Scissors tournament, back by popular demand. We'll see you in three months in sunny Fremont!
