2020 Fish Fry Auction Successful!!!

Our Auction this year was unconventional but still a big success! Many heartfelt thanks to those who donated auction items and services, to our many bidders and winners, and to our exceptional Fish Fry committee members, our corporate and individual sponsors (below), and to Laughlin Auctions. We could not have done this without any of you.

Together we raised nearly $40,000 for current and future programming. All of this is fueling and advancing our work on and for the river, engaging both new and seasoned stewards, educating children and adults alike, developing new tools for conservation, standing up for protection of the river and the bay, and more.

Our Fish Fry Auction would not have been possible without the support of our corporate sponsors. Thank you to the following donors:
