Hunkered down for a while? Looking for a new way to pass time on the internet? Well, saunter over to 88.5 KRFY’s benefit online auction and browse the items up for bidding. The auction bidding begins on Saturday, Oct. 10, and closes on Sunday, Oct. 18. 

Items can be previewed beginning on Monday, Oct. 5, on the auction website: biddingforgood.com/KRFY. The auction can also be accessed by going to KRFY’s website at krfy.org.

Many local businesses have made generous donations to the auction: Floating Restaurant, Hallans Gallery, 7B Gym, Ivano’s, Campfire Couture, Finan McDonald and Sherrie Daily Massage. Community members have donated homemade apple pies, sushi dinner for 10-12 people, two gallons of Schweitzer huckleberries, evergreen wreaths, an afternoon sail on Lake Pend Oreille and a handmade musical blocks quilt. 

Some big-ticket items include a weekend luxury condo at Schweitzer with eight lift tickets; Seattle Seahawks 2021 pre-season tickets and one-night stay at the W Hotel; and a stay at an ocean-front penthouse on Grace Bay, Turks and Caicos.

Want to support independent local journalism?

The Sandpoint Reader is our town's local, independent weekly newspaper. "Independent" means that the Reader is locally owned and operated by people who were born and raised in Sandpoint. The Reader is owned by Publisher Ben Olson, Editor-in-Chief Zach Hagadone and Senior Writer Soncirey Mitchell. Sandpoint Reader LLC is a completely independent business unit; no big newspaper group or corporate conglomerate or billionaire owner dictates our editorial policy. And we want the news, opinion and lifestyle stories we report to be freely available to all interested readers - so unlike many other newspapers and media websites, we have NO PAYWALL on our website. The Reader relies wholly on the support of our valued advertisers, as well as readers who voluntarily contribute. Want to ensure that local, independent journalism survives in our town? You can help support the Reader for as little as $1.
