 Skagit's brussell sprout crop is more than $9,999,999.99!). Make sure you are there to learn about the Big 12 crops, what's currently cool in agriculture, and why WSU is easily the best university in the Pacific Northwest.

 Mama Mia Warm Up! 

 As we hope you know, the theme of this year's auction is 'Mama 
 Mia, Here We Go Again.' To help you get humming the movie's 
 songs and get your auction switch turned on, the September 
 social committee has arranged for a free showing
 of Mama Mia Here We Go Again on Sunday, September
 11th at Mount Vernon's Lincoln Theatre. The time has not been finalized but we are thinking about 1 p.m. This special presentation is for club members, friends, family and, especially everyone attending the auction. Clear your calendar for that afternoon, clear your throats for an Abba songfest, and start asking people to attend the auction. Expect more information on the movie soon.

  • Christened a ship.
  • Ridden in a test truck at Paccar's technical center (something most people only get to watch
