Artist L. Palionis donates 10% ebay proceeds to BRC

Today I got a notice that a beautiful hand-painted wooden table/stool top will be auctioned on ebay with 10% of the proceeds to benefit BRC.

Surreal Acrylic painting on a pine stool top/ thick plaque signed by the artist. Fresh, glowing colors. Painted areas finished with several layers of extra-tough exterior acrylic finish. Wood has a hand-rubbed tung oil finish. Beautiful on a wall, but plenty rugged enough to serve as a piece of furniture.

We have had a few people do this for us, and I am always grateful that they have searched the web for a worthy cause, and somehow found the Bayfield Regional Conservancy. Thank you to L. Palionis for supporting our conservation work in northwestern Wisconsin.

Ebay Pancake Benefits BRC

The high bidder for our Mother Nature Miracle Pancake was Nancy Sandstrom of the Pinehurst Inn. Nancy won the pancake with her $86 bid!

The pancake appeared on the last griddle of flapjacks made by Ros Nelson at our annual Maple Syrup Pancake Breakfast March 31. The pancake seemed to have the likeness of Mother Nature, and not one to miss an opportunity to raise money for our conservation work, Ros posted the pancake on Ebay. Over 600 people viewed the auction and 42 people were watching the bids over the week of April 1.

Rick Olivo from the Daily Press wrote a hilarious story, "Miracle pancake or flapjack flap? eBay will settle this" that was picked up by the AP wire. The story took a life of its own and appeared in newspapers in St. Paul, Chicago, Madison, Eau Claire, Green Bay and Wausau.

The Sandstroms tell me that they are preserving the pancake (not serving it) for the future. Maybe it will make an appearance next year, for the good of the cause!
