NASTT’s 12th Annual Educational Fund Auction & Reception

Monday, March 4, 2013 - Sacramento, California

Celebrate our theme - Love, Peace and Charity - by dressing up in your best '60's outfit!

Don’t miss NASTT’s fundraising social event of the year – the 12th annual Educational Fund Auction and Reception!

The Auction helps raise money for a very worthy cause. Since 2002, NASTT has raised over $533,000 and used those funds in support of its educational initiatives. Due to your generosity, NASTT is able to sponsor students’ attendance at NASTT's No-Dig Shows, award scholarships, publish trenchless resources and provide targeted training courses to the membership at-large.

Auction sponsored by Barbco, Bennett Trenchless Engineers and Miller Pipeline. Auction conducted by  KLM Auctions.
