LogALoadAuction 2020!

$59,439 raised!

On the evening of Oct. 16, the Professional Logging Contractors (PLC) of Maine for the first time held its annual Log A Load for Maine Kids Auction as a virtual event, raising a record $59,439 for Children’s Miracle Network hospitals in Maine!

Held at Randall Madden’s garage in Milford, the event was live streamed by a WABI-TV crew and drew online participants from across Maine and beyond. Results from the live auction, silent auction, and donations allowed the PLC to exceed its fund-raising goal of $50,000.

“We’d like to thank all those participants, sponsors, donors, volunteers and partners who made it possible for the auction to be so successful despite the challenges of the pandemic,” PLC Executive Director Dana Doran, said. “We had never attempted a virtual event like this and are proud that in this, the PLC’s 25th anniversary year, we can say we overcame the challenges to support Log A Load once again.”

Funds raised in the auction will go to Barbara Bush Children’s Hospital in Portland and Northern Light’s Eastern Maine Medical Center in Bangor, both Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.

Great job everyone, and special thanks to auctioneer Scott Hanington!
