This year’s annual Holiday Hoopla has gone virtual. While the in-person gathering that’s usually co-sponsored by Keweenaw Young professionals and the Keweenaw Chamber of Commerce won’t be held, the silent auction fundraiser associated with it is underway.
The auction includes more than 40 items, including several created by students involved in career and technical education programs through local high schools and the Copper Country Intermediate School District. The sale is coordinated by the Keweenaw Economic Development Alliance. Money raised supports scholarships for students who wish to pursue CTE careers.
Last year KEDA and the Portage Health Foundation created a partnership that ensures that each of the high schools in Baraga, Houghton, Keweenaw, and Ontonagon Counties has a $1,000 scholarship to offer.
Bidding will be open through Monday. You can see the available items, and place your bid, here.
