Angel Flight West benefits from CPTC auction
Posted on December 14, 2011On December 9, the Aviation Maintenance Honor Society at Clover Park Technical College held a silent auction to benefit Angel Flight West. The Honor Society was founded in March of this year to promote a higher level of skill and professionalism in aviation maintenance.
Angel Flight West is a not-for-profit professional airlift organization that transports people from outlying areas who require medical attention. Twenty of the 40 aviation club members worked diligently on the auction, contributing their own time, money and manpower to raise almost $2,400.
Approximately 30 people were in constant attendance making bids on more than 50 donated items including two round-trip tickets from Alaska Airlines and a media release flight jacket from the film, "Top Gun."
“This was the beginning,” said Ben Watson, current club president. “We hope to make the auction an annual event.” See images from the event online at CPTC's In The Spotlight blog.
