The Alternative Spring Break (ASB) Auction on March 5 drew Hamilton students and community members to the annual event designed to raise money to help fund the nine volunteer trips that begin next Friday. This year 100 Hamilton students will participate in ASB, the largest number of volunteers ever. 

Students will travel to Washington, D.C., Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Kentucky and Tennessee to work with non-profit organizations. Thursday's event included a silent auction that offered everything from restaurant gift certificates to Café Opus cookies. Live auction items included a behind the scenes Saranac Brewery Tour, a kayak trip with Andrew Jillings, and round trip airfare anywhere in the U.S. Eric Kuhn '09 was auction host.
