Location: Oshkosh, WI | The University of Wisconsin Oshkosh Student Veterans Association is a non-profit student organization that has a mission of supporting veterans and their families, as well as raising awareness within the community. This transition may be a difficult time for some veterans as they cope with the transition from a military environment to a student environment.
In an effort to assist our brothers and sisters, the UW Oshkosh Student Veterans Association works to bring educational programming to campus. To that end, the UW Oshkosh Student Veterans Association will be holding a silent auction February 25 to March 1 to raise funds that allow us to continue our outreach and support programming. 100% of the proceeds from this event will be dedicated to that mission. We are asking local businesses, organizations and citizens interested in supporting our mission, to donate items, gift certificates, services or any other item of their choosing for our spring silent auction. All contributors will be recognized in our promotional materials on campus, the broader community and in this thread. Donations do not need to be big ticket items – many folks would appreciate being able to bid on a variety of basic fishing, outdoor equipment or other items. For example, I plan to tie up and donate some crawler harnesses.
Please message me if you have any questions or to make arrangements for a donation.

Douglas Rottler, President

| I will be happy to donate a certificate for one of my Runnin' Rod Racks. These are kind of 'boat specific' though, so if any of you guys have been kicking around the idea of getting one for your boat, this might a good chance to get a deal. Avg Joe: I will PM you for an address to send this to. |
