On Saturday March 20, the HRS community joined together, while apart, to support Hamlin Robinson School for the 2021 HRS Camp-In auction.
It was a Camp-In adventure to remember! This online camping trip was filled with spirited bidding, laughter, and lots of memories made, all in support of our school.
Catered dinners, camper boxes and camping around the living room fire were the highlights of the night. Our auctioneer, Ian Lindsay, opened the live auction on YouTube where livestreaming made it possible to watch and bid the night away.
Although the event was virtual, we all joined together in the chat room, sharing emojis and cheering for every bid! (colon clap!) Your extraordinary generosity helped us raise over $310,000 – with over $205,000 contributed during the fund-a-need (not including matching funds).
These proceeds will have an immediate impact on our students and school. A quarter of fund-a-need proceeds will be designated to our financial aid endowment which provides support for need-based financial assistance for HRS families. THANK YOU to everyone who made our auction a tremendous success and spectacularly fun - we are so grateful.
A special thank you to everyone, seen and unseen, who helped plan this amazing celebration of our school. In addition, the auction wouldn't have been possible without the contributions and partnership of our auction sponsors and donors. We are humbled by the dedication and spirit of giving from our community.
We can’t wait to have s’more fun next year!
