We’re throwing a party and we hope you come!

Friday, June 6.  Evergreen Elks Lodge. Doors, the Bar, and Bidding open at 5 pm. Programming starts at 6.

Your BASH committee and volunteers have been working hard to make sure that this year’s BASH and BENEFIT is better than ever. And, of course, every penny raised supports our  award-winning Evergreen Nature Center!

Volunteers have pounded the pavement to find silent auction items you can’t live without – beautiful custom jewelry, original art, useful gift baskets, and more! Don’t need more stuff in your life? Then check out experiences you won’t want to miss – goat hikes! donkey days! carousel rides! escape rooms! Try a nature journaling workshop or a cooking class. Hungry? We have more restaurant gift certificates than you can shake a fork at!  

The live auction features a three-night stay in a Vail condo or you can buy a bunch of raffle tickets for a weekend in a Crested Butte condo (hedge your bets – try for both!). The Paddle Raise helps pay for extras we’d really like to have including a habitat for new animal ambassadors and funds to support program scholarships.

The evening will include lots of fun activities including Tails vs Tales Trivia, affordable bucket raffles, a free selfie photo booth, a Tail Pull (if you don’t know what that is, you’ll want to come just to find out!) and the highly entertaining Heads and Tails Raffle.    

Admission includes two drink tickets, all the appetizers and sweets you can eat, and the satisfaction of supporting Evergreen Nature Center. See you there!  

If you can’t make the Bash & Benefit, please consider donating or doing a paddle raise!
If you are going to the Bash & Benefit, consider doing your paddle raises ahead of time!

Thank you to the evening’s sponsors and donors!
