By Robyn Bentley-Graham, CAE ISIA Education Foundation Secretary


Conference Auctions


Beginning this month, the ISIA Education Foundation (ISIAEF) is providing a number of opportunities for industry members to have fun while also supporting invaluable foundation programs, including the annual scholarship awards. Once again, the foundation will host


its popular silent and live auctions during conference week, May 31 – June 4. Be sure to check out auction items on display during conference registration and the ISI Awards Dinner. A silent auction for a variety of items


will begin at the opening of the trade show Tursday, June 2. Attendees will also have the opportunity to bid on one large ticket item at the start of the ISI Awards Dinner. Individuals or vendors interested in


donating items for the auctions should contact Jamie Baringer at jbaring@bgsu.edu.


Worlds Benefit Show


Te ISIAEF show committee is pleased to announce that the “the Gold girls” will be the featured skaters of this year’s Benefit on Ice Show Friday, July 29, during Worlds week at Schwan Super Rink in Blaine, Minn. At the U.S. Figure Skating Champion- ships in January, the sisters made history as the first set of twins competing in the ladies senior circuit since 2003. For both girls, it was a fairytale come true — Gracie, an Olympian, earned her second U.S. champion title, and Carly was thrilled to qualify for nationals. As seating is limited, this year’s event is

• VIP Admission: Includes Show and Autograph Session - $45 in advance, prior to July 18. A limited number of


tickets available. Includes an exclusive meet-and-greet autograph session following the show. Note that all chaperones must purchase a VIP ticket as well.
