The third annual Coupeville Lions Scholarship Auction was a huge success, we raised $22,000 for deserving young men and women at Coupeville High School! Thanks goes to all of the individuals and local businesses who donated auction items, community bakers who donated desserts for the dessert auction and the businesses who donated food and supplies:

Christopher’s, Oyster Catcher, Ruby’s, Bayleaf, Serendipity Catering, Prairie Center Red Apple, Screaming Banshee Bakery and Miriam’s Espresso Cafe.

A special thanks to Paula Spina and Lance D. Loomis for making their beautiful facility, the Crockett Barn, available for our event. Most of all, thank you to the amazing community members who attended the auction and were so generous with their bids. You have shown, once again, that Coupeville is a town that supports our kids and their futures!
