Little River Chapter - Online Auction
Our 4th Annual Online Auction Fundraiser will go live at 12:00 noon on November 23, until 09:00 p.m. on December 8. The link to the Auction is available to everyone at https://lrctu.tulocalevents.org/70ad54/Campaign/Details Please share this link widely with your family, friends, and fellow anglers. Their proximity to eastern TN does not matter, as we have arranged for shipping items to several states in past years.
Popular items in this year’s Auction include 3-night stays and fishing on Norton Creek, guided fishing trips, rods (two custom bamboo rods), reels, original artwork, expert fly assortments, hand-made crafts, custom woodwork, products and gift cards from local fishing and outdoor equipment businesses, several area restaurants, and many more desirable items. The value of current pledges well exceeds $10,000. At our December 5 Chapter Meeting, to be held at the Bluetick Tavern this year, many of the Auction items will be on display.
At least 80% of the money raised from the Auction will be given directly to support fisheries initiatives in the GSMNP. Any remaining funds will be kept for our nonprofit operating expenses and youth education programs. In fact, we have donated over 100% of Auction proceeds in the past two years.
