BSCC announces new auction items

BIG SKY – New auction items have been announced for the Big Sky Community Corp.’s second annual Parks and Trails Gala, a fundraiser for the nonprofit, to be held Saturday, July 27 at the community park.

Last year’s sold out event raised a net profit of more than $100,000, which was used to help fund a new pavilion, restrooms and concession in the park, and build the first phase of the South Fork Trails system– a series of more than eight miles of public easements that BSCC received from the Simkins family in May.

The board recently determined this year’s proceeds will go toward parks and trails improvements, specifically continued construction of the South Fork Trails; additional infrastructure in the park including sod and landscaping; mapping of the Mountain to Meadow trail; and planning a bridge linking Ousel Falls Trail to Yellow Mule Trail above the waterfall.

A live and silent auction will take place after dinner, before transitioning into music by local country-rock band Bottom of the Barrel.

BSCC Executive Director Jessie Wiese says there is something for everyone in this year’s spread of items.

“Local, national and international donors have made our auction world class this year,” Wiese said. “I think we’ve done a really good job of having appealing items for everyone that will be there.”

Live auction items she is particularly excited about include a heli-skiing trip in British Columbia, a football weekend for two in Seattle and an exclusive fishing trip in Yellowstone National Park.

Spa packages, gift cards, furniture and gear are just a few of the many silent auctions to be featured at this year’s fundraiser.

Event sponsors include the Yellowstone Club Community Foundation, Highline Partners, NorthWestern Energy, Hammond Property Management, Rotary International, On Site Management, Inc., Bozeman Audi, Big Sky Western Bank, Republic Services of Montana, Lohss Contruction and Outlaw Partners, publisher of this newspaper.
