The very popular KSKC live on-air auction will wrap up Thursday, Dec. 6, from 6 to 8 p.m. The 15th annual KSKC live auction with Rudy King as auctioneer continues to grow. Viewers can call in bids, and people are welcome to come to the campus at SKC in Pablo to participate in-person. The auction will be held in the SKC Three Wolves Deli, right next to the D’Arcy McNickle Library. Coffee, tea, cookies and Mission Mountain Mist will be free.
Participants are encouraged to arrive around 5:30 p.m. to get a good seat and enjoy the auction. Special call-in numbers will be available during the fund drive for those staying home. All items have been donated, so all proceeds will go to the local public television station. Many great items are on the agenda this year, including lots of beadwork and artwork of many types and other exciting items including a Corky Clairmont original art piece created during the auction, a year’s worth of homemade Denise Fyant cookies, Linda King artwork, a load of crushed gravel program and many original art pieces and prints and hundreds of other items.
The annual drive funds operation and maintenance of the only local public TV entity in the valley. As well as the on-air fund drive, this is the time of year that KSKC-TV also solicits underwriting from local business. The local business contributions are a very important part of the community support and KSKC is grateful for the interest and support that businesses have shown for public television. Viewer contributions, underwriting, and contributions by Salish Kootenai College and the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes support KSKC-TV. They receive no federal, state or local tax support for ongoing operation.
