MLCA auction supports Christian education

MOSES LAKE — The event center at Moses Lake Christian Academy was packed to the gills with 200 attendees plus volunteers Saturday night, as the school held its annual fundraiser banquet and auction. “We actually sold exactly 200 seats, said Janeil Koethke, the auction committee chairman. “That's as many as we can fit in, so we had to cut it off. We had some volunteers who didn't have a seat.” The auction raised a little less than $130,000, Koethke said, a dramatic increase over last year’s auction, which she estimated brought in around $80,000.
