Silent Auction

Thanks to Chief Don Taylor's willingness (once again) to gather some donated items, we'll be holding a silent auction throughout the Conference. Word has it that there will be a Yeti cooler, a Vortex scope, a Yeti Hopper (soft sided cooler), a guided salmon fishing trip for two, a stained glass art piece designed by OACP member, Colene Domenech, and some other cool items. Come prepared to bid on one or more of these.
