See You Tonight! How to Stream The Mountaineers 2023 Gala

Tonight is the night! We can’t wait to welcome you as a virtual guest at the Gala this evening. The evening’s festivities will have a lasting impact on our community, with all proceeds supporting mission-driven programs and initiatives. This year we’ve set an ambitious goal of $535,000 and we need your help to make it happen! All funds raised through ticket sales, auction bids, and Raise the Paddle donations provide unrestricted funding to help make the magic of Mountaineers programs possible.

With so much in store, here's what you need to know to optimize your experience:

Online Auction

  • The silent auction (packages 1001-1060) is open now for bidding, and the live auction (packages 101-111) will open around 8pm during the livestream. With over 70 packages to choose from, you can travel to new places, invite your friends on adventure-ready experiences, adorn your home with stunning artwork, and outfit yourself with top-of-the-line gear! Take a look at all of what’s in store on our online bidding page.

Start Bidding!

  • A delay in the livestream may impact the bidding experience for the live auction and we encourage you to select the “bid more” feature that will allow you to “set max bid” and your bid will be placed automatically. The final sale will be determined by the auctioneer as he closes each package individually.

  • Package winners can coordinate pick-up of their items at The Mountaineers Seattle Program Center (7700 Sand Point Way NE Seattle, WA 98115) during normal business hours: Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm. If you live out of the area, please know we are not able to ship wine, spirits, or large bulky items. We’re happy to work with auction winners to ship other items at the bidder's expense.
