Laissez Les Bon Temps Roulez

Laissez les bon temps roulez – that’s how to say “let the good times roll” New Orleans-style, and we are ready to roll at our annual auction – and biggest fundraiser – on Saturday, May 21. The event takes place at Bitter Lake Community Center from 5:30-11:00 PM.

 A wide range of auction items are yours to bid on including:

Tickets–theaters, museums and Disneyland!

Getaways–mountains and New Orleans!

Classroom projects–paintings, birdhouses, even a handmade electric guitar!

 Dinner features “N’ Orleans style soul food” catered by Where Ya At, the hippest, hottest food truck in Seattle. We’ll have hurricanes, a rum and fruit juice cocktail that became popular at Pat O’Briens bar in 1940’s New Orleans.  Beer provided by Big E Ales, wine and non-alcoholic beverages will also be available. Satisfy your sweet tooth with the dessert auction, where tables bid against each other to have first pick of a dazzling array of scrumptious desserts.  We’ll top the night off with karaoke party.
