Build-A-Leader Auction

Your dollars make sure that every child has access to a high-quality, engaging Scouting program regardless of their circumstances and provides extra resources and support for Scouts in low-income, hard-to-serve urban and rural communities across the region. The annual Build-A-Leader Auction funds Chief Seattle Council’s Scoutreach program, which serves over more than 1200 underserved youth throughout the state.

The Build-A-Leader Auction Committee invites you to an unforgettable evening. Dust off your boots, grab your hat, and get ready to ride—whether that’s bidding high, connecting with friends, or taking your chances on the mechanical bull!

Enjoy great food, exciting auction packages, and plenty of fun—all while supporting programs that build the next generation of leaders through Scouting. Every dollar raised helps provide life-changing opportunities for youth in our community.

Round up your crew, dress the part, and come ready to make an impact—we’ll see you at the auction! If you can’t attend the event, please support local youth by donating today!

This award was created to honor those who have rendered exceptional volunteer service to further the Mission of Scouting within Chief Seattle Council. It is awarded annually to an adult volunteer who has contributed their leadership, expertise, and support to Chief Seattle Council’s fund development efforts.

The award is presented at the Build-A-Leader Scout Auction.
