Welcome to August--the bittersweet end of Summer! Here at Community Auctions, we celebrate the remaining days in the sun, relish outdoor lake days and look forward to beautiful mountain hikes in the relieving shade. We hope you are ways to escape the heat while still enjoying what's left of the season.

We have been busy here at Community Auctions, continuing to fundraise for local charities despite the temptation to go outside and play. Since school let out in May we have raised well over $250, 000 for local charities around the country--and August is just beginning. We can't wait to see what the remaining days will bring!

As we approach the end of summer, it's a time to reflect on all the wonderful memories we've made. We've spent time with loved ones, enjoyed the outdoors, and made new discoveries.

But summer is also a time of transition. As the days get shorter and the nights get cooler, we start to think about the coming months. We may be feeling a bit nostalgic, but we're also excited about what the future holds.

This newsletter is a reminder that the best is yet to come. No matter what challenges we face, we can overcome them. We have the power to create our own happiness.

So as we say goodbye to summer, let's embrace the excitement of the coming months. Let's set our sights on new goals and new adventures. Let's make the most of every moment.

No matter what you do, make sure you enjoy the journey. Life is too short to be anything but happy.

So go out there and make the most of it!
