Do you want to help shape and form future reclamationists?

WE HAVE THE ANSWER!

Consider donating an item to the silent auction held in conjunction with the annual meeting this year in Knoxville, Tennessee.

The American Society of Reclamation Science’s silent auction funds support student scholarships, travel grants and presentation competition awards at our Annual Meetings!

  • Student Travel Grants
  • Student Social Events

Not sure what to donate? Here are some ideas that travel well:

  • Handmade items
  • Small framed artwork or photographs
  • Something unique from where you live
  • A unique item from previous annual meetings
  • Photos signed by previous ASRS presidents, award winners or members
  • Portable technology for the reclamation professional
  • High vis field gear or bad weather clothing
  • Appalachian hardwood products
  • Gift cards to national chains (such as Amazon / Wal-mart / Dominos for hungry students or faculty)
  • Trips to local or far away locations where people can vacation to
  • Books that apply to both near and far from the meeting location
  • Reaching out to local stores in your community can be a great option and a way to help your local economy.

LET’S MAKE THE BEST SILENT AUCTION EVER WITH THE MOST NUMBER OF THINGS TO BID ON AND THE MOST DIVERSE PRODUCTS EVER!!!

To donate items, please reach out to Seth Cude (Seth@RockwellScience.com) or Brenda Schladweiler (BSchladweiler@bksenvironmental.com). All silent auction donations can be dropped at the registration desk in Knoxville.
