Silent Auction Thank You

LSHRM would like to send a BIG Thank You to all who participated in our 9th annual Silent Auction on November 7th at the Big Springs Country Club.

The 80's theme was a big hit, and some old favorites were brought back to help lighten the mood. The speaker was phenomenal and full of energy, and the country club catered a fantastic meal as well! To see pictures, check out the LSHRM Facebook page and "Like" us if you haven't already.

Overall, there were over 70 different baskets to bid on in the Silent Auction, and a grand total of $5,380.50 was raised to support the SHRM Foundation in providing scholarships, research, and education in the field of Human Resources.

We are looking forward to celebrating our 10th anniversary of the Silent Auction in 2013, so be on the lookout for updates as we approach this special event.

Thank you!
