NIACC Foundation to Host 85th Anniversary Dinner and Auction

           North Iowa Area Community College is celebrating its 85th anniversary this year. To commemorate this special occasion, the NIACC Foundation will host a fund-raising dinner and auction (black tie optional), called “NIACC’s Night to Shine,” on Saturday, October 11. All the proceeds will go toward program development and student scholarships at the College.

The evening will begin at 5:30 p.m. in the North Iowa Community Auditorium Gallery with a silent auction and social hour, followed by dinner and a live auction in NIACC’s Muse Norris Conference Center.

A variety of entertainment will be provided throughout the evening. As part of the program, several special friends of the College will be honored with the NIACC Shining Star Award.

Over 100 auction items have been donated by individuals and businesses across the region. The lengthy list includes prints by Charles Fritz, David Rottinghaus and Terry Redlin; rides in a hot air balloon, ice boat and WWII plane; as well as jewelry, pottery, dinner experiences, vacation packages, home furnishings, tickets to sporting events, a year’s supply of mouth-watering treats like Krispy Kremes, and much more!

            The NIACC Foundation has been working on this event with a regional planning committee since the first of the year. In keeping with the anniversary theme, tickets to the event are $85 a person. To make reservations, please call the NIACC Foundation at 641-422-4269 or 1-888-GO NIACC, ext. 4269, by September 26.
