Fundraising Auctioneer Laura Michalek still relies on the endurance and discipline she possessed when at the age of 15, she was the first female winner of the Chicago Marathon. While Ms. Michalek has hardly missed a day of running since then, it’s this intention to excel at what she loves that is most evident. “To me Auctioneering is about giving a lot of yourself, before and during the event,

in a way that most folks wouldn’t expect.” Her style, fundraising insight, and commitment to her clients and their mission, not only sets her apart, but has

created a career beyond Ms. Michalek’s wildest dreams. “I’ve always been deeply interested in how non-profits I care about are going to sustain themselves, so it is nothing less than a thrill to know I can personallyand professionally be part of that.” For 15 years prior to becoming a full time Fundraising Professional, Ms. Michalek owned and operated several nationally recognized vintage modern furniture stores in Seattle. “My critical eye, intuition, and energy level has been

pretty consistent all these years, so whenever I set out to do something, it’s the same set of skills, just a slightly more developed new chapter.” As the youngest

winner in the history of the Chicago Marathon, it has not been lost on Ms. Michalek that this experience informed her whole life. “When I start

Auctioneering, it’s like being in the starting block all over again, and I still set out to win, however this time it’s for the organization I’m representing.” !

117 One Week Long Session at Castle

Rock Ranch Camp

Castle Rock Ranch Camp is a summer camp for kids located in the Bitterroot Mountain Range in Idaho's northern panhandle. They are a kids camp with a farm-to-table curriculum, located on a ranch with a mile of frontage on the Coeur D'Alene river. Their mission is to cultivate an interest in ranch life, the outdoors, sustainable food, gardening, and agriculture, and to disconnect from technology and reconnect with the natural world in a soul-rejuvenating, rural setting. Kids ride horses and float down the river everyday, but also learn about ranch animal care and growing food. The majority of their food comes from the ranch: with an extensive vegetable garden and over 100 blueberry bushes, strawberry plants, and a raspberry orchard, in addition to chickens, cows and goats. Campers help with ranch chores in the morning – milking the goats, collecting eggs, feeding the animals and harvesting from the garden – and have the opportunity to help in the kitchen if they're interested as well. !About a six hour drive from Seattle and free pick up available from Spokane Airport. For students ages 9-14. !Value: $1,250.00 A gift from Castle Rock Ranch Camp !!!!!!!!!!!!!
