Tired of finding parking for your car on your trips around town? Looking for a fun way to see the city? One of the top items at the 2012 Ross School PTA Auction is a 2012 Genuine Buddy 125 scooter from Modern Classics.

If you want a chance to win the scooter, buy a $20 raffle ticket (or as many as you want). Raffle tickets for the scooter are not available at the auction’s online bidding site, but you can buy tickets at Modern Classics, at the March 10 auction or by emailing Auction Co-chair Jennifer Touchette. The drawing for the scooter is held toward the end of the auction.

The 4th Annual Ross Elementary School PTA Auction is coming up in two weeks. The event is open to everyone and online bidding is underway. The live auction is Saturday, March 10, at the German Marshall Fund, 1744 R Street NW, from 5 to 8 pm.

Ross Elementary is a public neighborhood school at 1730 R Street NW. The school, like many others in the city and beyond, needs to raise cash to buy tablets and laptops for students and staff. The funds raised at the annual auctions also help support professional development for teachers, as well as student scholarships for their after-school enrichment programs. To learn more about Ross School and how the auction proceeds are used, read Ross School PTA Auction: Let the Bidding Begin!

Borderstan is proud to be among this year’s sponsors of the Ross School PTA Auction, along with Level One restaurant, Modern Classics and VIDA Fitness.
