You’ll Come A Long Way Baby: About Our Auctioneer, Laura Michalek

Fundraising Auctioneer Laura Michalek still relies on the endurance and discipline she possessed when at the age of 15, she was the first female winner of the Chicago Marathon. While Ms. Michalek has hardly missed a day of running since then, it’s this intention to excel at what she loves that is most evident. “To me Auctioneering is about giving alot of yourself, before and during the event, in a way that most folks wouldn’t expect.” Her style, fundraising insight, and commitment to her clients, and their mission, not only sets her apart, but has created a career beyond Ms. Michalek’s wildest dreams. “I’ve always been deeply interested in how non-profits I care about are going to sustain themselves, so it is nothing less than a thrill to know I can personally and professionally be part of that.” For 15 years prior to becoming a full time Fundraising Professional, Ms. Michalek owned and operated several nationally recognized vintage modern furniture stores in Seattle. “My critical eye, intuition, and energy level has been pretty consistent all these years, so whenever I set out to do something, it’s the same set of skills, just a slightly more developed new chapter.” As the youngest winner in the history of the Chicago Marathon, it has not been lost on Ms. Michalek that this experience informed her whole life. “When I start Auctioneering, it’s like being in the starting block all over again, and I still set out to win, however this time it’s for the organization I’m representing.” To hear what folks are saying about Ms. Michalek visit www.lauramichalek.com or email auctioneer@lauramichalek.com or call direct at 206.464.0850.

THANK YOU to OUR GENEROUS SPONSORS!

RULES OF THE AUCTION Lake Washington Girls Middle School reserves the right to withdraw any item from sale. Lake Washington Girls Middle School has endeavored to catalog and describe the auction items correctly based on the information given by the donor, but all items are sold “as is.” No statements contained in the program or made orally at the sale or elsewhere shall be deemed a warranty, representation, or assumption of liability. Bidders should carefully note the specific restrictions, conditions, and expiration dates for items purchased. We appreciate your observance of these restrictions, as future donations depend upon it. Each bid legally obligates the bidder to pay his or her bid price in full if his or her bid is deemed the high bid for an item at the conclusion of the auction. Once the auction closing time is announced, no further bids may be made. Volunteers are instructed to circle the winning bid and remove the bid sheets immediately for processing. Your cooperation is appreciated. All winning bids are final. There will be no exchange or refund on items unless otherwise specified. All items must be taken home the evening of the auction.
