Mattawa auction exceeds all expectations, raises more than $10,000
MATTAWA — In a world where Murphy’s Law always seems to lurk around the corner, it’s nice when things go better than planned. Like the first annual Sven Legacy Foundation fundraiser auction in Mattawa Saturday. “(It went) a lot better than anticipated,” said Lars Leland, one of the organizers of the event. “I was a bit panicked, since it was our first event … I was expecting 30, 40 people (and) we had over 110 people show up.”
