Many unique and interesting donation items continue to arrive each week for the "Silver Anniversary" of the IGFA's premier fundraising event, the 25th Annual International Auction & Banquet set for January.
The event will take place at The Breakers in Palm Beach, Fla., Friday, January 23, 2009.
"We just received a three day three night bass fishing trip in Mexico sent to us by Ron Speed's Adventures," said IGFA Corporate Relations Manager Ms. Lesley Arico. "In fact the angler can choose between two great bass fishing locations on either Lake Comendeo or Lake El Salto. Interested bidders will want to read more about this great adventure being offered.
"Add to that donation are other great once-in-a-lifetime trips including a week for two at the fantastic Tropic Star Lodge in Panama, a safari for two to Zulu Nyala in South Africa and a seven-day wels catfishing trip for two to Europe.
The IGFA will feature renowned marine artist, conservationist and marine biologist, Dr. Guy Harvey. Harvey, an IGFA Trustee and long time auction supporter, has promised a special auction piece to commemorate the milestone.
"A signed and numbered print of his original artwork will be given to each guest."
Arico said other impressive art donations include an original sculpture by past featured artist, David Wirth, and an original bronze sculpture by Bodo Muche of Australia.
"We're expecting more beautiful works of art along with fishing charters, rods and reels, tackle, jewelry, resorts, and much more. We'll have more to announce in the coming months plus news on the much anticipated and very popular online portion of the auction which begins in December on the IGFA website at www.igfa.org."
Tickets are $175 per person or a corporate table for 10 people can be purchased for $3000 that includes preferred table placement, a full-page ad in the auction program, table signage and table favors. To make reservations, an auction donation or if you need further information please contact Ms. Arico at 954-924-4222 or email larico@igfa.org.
