Jubilee Auction

October 2 @ 8:00 am - October 6 @ 5:00 pm

 

Jubilee Auction: October 2-6, 2024

Holden Village’s biggest annual fundraising event is back for the fifth year! Whether you live close by or far away, YOU can feel connected to the Village by participating in the Jubilee Auction. Your winning bids made through our all-online silent auction help to sustain Holden Village’s operations and extend a warm welcome to those who have yet to visit.

It’s expensive to run and maintain Holden Village. Our remote location makes our logistics complicated and our operations more expensive. Yet we are committed as ever to offer a wide range of meaningful activities and extend Holden “wilderness welcome” to all, all guided by faith and values we hold dear. Guest fees account for a significant source of support – but did you know we rely on charitable donations to cover nearly half of Holden’s annual financial obligations?

Your successful bids on our auction items and experiences helps to provide:

  • Sessions with expert teaching faculty on topics including ecology, art, justice, theology, music, and more!
  • Supplies for the Art Studio students
  • Outdoor gear for guests to borrow from Hike Haus
  • Stipends, salaries, benefits, and/or room and board for the staff and volunteers who keep the Village running
  • Ingredients for delicious home cooked meals from the Holden Kitchen
  • Candles, bulletins, and worship supplies
  • Maintenance for the fleet of vehicles that transport visitors, luggage, groceries to and from the boat dock
  • Bedding, towels, and pillows for a comfy and cozy stay
  • Laundry and cleaning supplies
  • Ice cream for Snack Bar visitors
  • And SO much more!

Education

Holden Village is a community where your questions are valued and encouraged. Most programs led by visiting teaching faculty occur during the summer months. However, Holden also invites faculty to teach sessions for special events and retreats throughout the rest of the year.
