Teen center raises over $172,000

BRUSH PRAIRIE — The Rocksolid Community Teen Center raised more than $172,000 at its 18th annual Lucky Shamrock Auction on March 1 at WareHouse ’23, which set a record. The event included 310 guests who participated in a silent and live auction, games and dinner. The number of teens served has increased at the center this year and money will help with expenses, enhance programs and send teens to a camp for two weeks in the summer. The center offers a safe place for fifth to twelfth grade students after school in Battle Ground and Hockinson school districts. Next year’s auction will take place on March 14, 2020, at WareHouse ’23.
