The State Bar Association of North Dakota Spring 2015 Gavel Magazine | Page 29

One of the great traditions of our annual meeting is the North Dakota Bar Foundation’s annual silent auction. This year’s event will be held in conjunction with the Foundation reception - at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday evening, June 18 at the Northern Lights Atrium at the North Dakota Heritage Center in Bismarck. The Silent Auction is always a fun event and proceeds support the Foundation’s scholarships, grants and the Pro Bono Fund. We are asking lawyers and law firms from across the state to join in the fun. We are hoping you will find something unique to donate to the Foundation auction. The Northern Lights Atrium at the North Dakota Heritage Center. If you would like to give a cash donation rather than an item, please specify whether you want your gift to be used to purchase an item for the auction or given directly to the Foundation. Please contact Jeanne Schlittenhard at the Association office, 800-472-2685 or 701-2551404, when you have decided on your gift. Please plan to attend the annual meeting.
