Whether you’re looking for a fabulous new piece of art or a relaxing beach getaway, Night Out for Lookout has it (and more). The annual fundraiser for Lookout Mountain School is coming February 24 to the Fairyland Club ballroom.

The auction website allows you to purchase tickets, register as a bidder, make donations, pre-bid and even purchase some items before the event. All items will be available for preview February 18.
Some highlights include a week’s stay in Amelia Island, Tennessee Titan tickets, box seats for Chattanooga Lookouts game, Louisa Guild jewelry, a helicopter ride with Rock Creek Aviation, and art from local artists such as Christie Davenport, Allison Elkins, Jan Robinson, Aloyse Brown and Hope Hessler Bailey (just to name a few).
Proceeds from the evening support the capstones of an LMS education, such as low teacher/student ratios, a robust related arts program, daily PE, weekly art and music instruction, a full-time librarian and an innovative science lab.
The auction committee is continually honored and humbled by the way our entire community comes out to support this event year after year – and our school as a whole,” says Maggie Estes, who is co-chairing this year’s event with Lesslie Meier and Whitney Garvich.
This year also brings a paddle bid for an exciting special project – a new playground. While the current playground has served the school well for 20 years, it’s nearing its life expectancy. The area is integral in providing outdoor fitness opportunities, particularly through LMS’ daily PE (another benefit made possible through fundraisers like NOFL).
Another exciting addition is a Ladies of Lookout preview party on February 16 where women can “sip, stock and see” select art, jewelry and spa auction items. Items will be available for pre-bid and some even for purchase.
Held at Christine and Lee Kern’s home from 6 to 9 pm, women can enjoy appetizers, wine and mini manicures and chair massages provided by Mountain Escape Spa. The “ticket” is a bottle of wine which will go toward the Wine Cellar that will be raffled off at NOFL. (RSVP here to attend)
