To the editor:

Northern Lights Guardianship — formally Northern Lights School — would like to sincerely thank all of the local businesses, community members, friends and family who participated in our sixth annual online silent auction fundraiser. We had donations from 100 businesses/donors and the auction raised over $6,200. All proceeds from the auction will directly support play yard restoration following the installation of our geothermal heating and cooling system. Thanks to your support, our play yard will be transformed into a magical space for our children.
