What: Dig It! school auction and benefit concert by Star Anna and the Laughing Dogs
Where: The Columbia City Theater at 4916 Rainier Ave S, Seattle, WA
When: Thursday, July 14, 2011 from 7:00 pm -11:00 pm
Why: The school auction is THE MAJOR fundraiser for the year for the Community School of West Seattle. Last year we raised more than $20,000 to replace the school’s 20 year old worn and cracking flooring. This year our goal is to raise $25,000 to address drainage issues in the Big Yard and transform the rugged hillside into a fun and integrated part of the play area.
Buy a ticket: Tickets are $35 and will be on sale only at school starting June 1st. Make it a party and pick up some tickets for your non-CSWS friends and family too! The show is 21 and over.
How to bid: Read through this site to discover all of the amazing items up for auction this year so you can plan your bidding accordingly! Bidding info soon to come.

"The converted beach house features Puget Sound views and a beachy neighborhood feel you simply will not find at your typical spa. Rather than the standard Zen-themed decor, you have palm trees, bamboo, and a view. And instead of the recorded nature sound CDs played at most facilities, Alki View Massage offers the real deal; gentle breezes, seagulls, waves and all." ~West Seattle Herald
