It’s Funspiel time again! On February 22, 2025, the Mesabi East Foundation will host the 4th Annual Tom Gillach Funspiel at the Range Recreation Civic Center (Eveleth Curling Club).
This event includes a silent auction, curling, a luncheon, sponsorship opportunities, and a chance to visit! We hope you'll join us for this fun day of celebration and will consider donating a unique item to include in the auction. Last year we raised $16,362 throughout the entire event, and our aim this year is to surpass that amount. Proceeds will be used to grow the endowment and to support educational opportunities at Mesabi East. We appreciate your consideration of donating an item for the auction and will happily accept art, ceramics, themed baskets, items to add to other donations to create baskets, gift cards, monetary donations, and more. Together, through the Mesabi East Foundation, we WILL make a difference!
If you are interested in donating a silent auction item, please contact Bobby Jo Mineheine at (218) 290-4343 or Britt See-Benes at (218) 780-5776. If you are interested in forming a team or being a sponsor, please contact Aaron Undeland at (218) 742-2188 or Brad Scott at (218) 248-9656.
