Jazz Camp West
An 8-day jazz immersion program for adults and teens of all skill levels held in a stunning redwood forest in Northern CA.
AUCTION AND RAFFLE
Every season at Jazz Camp, we hold a fantastic silent auction and raffle to raise money for our scholarship fund. I am always humbled by the generous donations we receive and all the folks at camp that bid on and win auction prizes. Without the auction and raffle, we would not be able to provide the amount of financial aid that we do. We are hoping to raise $10,000 this year between the auction and raffle. WE CAN DO THIS!
To get you excited, here is our list of prizes! THANK YOU DONORS!
These are not listed in order of value. Keep scrolling to see all the amazing gifts!
Start thinking about which prize(s) you want now and be ready to bid when the auction sheets go up. You will have the chance to keep bidding throughout the week and the highest bidder will win! The bid sheets will be posted outside of the dining room and raffle tickets (only $5!) will be sold in the camp store.
Thank you to Angie Doctor and Stu Fishman for helping to pull this off!
