When notified of his prize for winning the 2023 Best of Show Beer at the ASH Cactus Classic, Robert Abbot graciously said "thanks, but no thanks". He said that he already has enough gear, and thought that the prize could go to someone else that might really need it. He said that what would really make him happy would be if we auctioned off his prize and donated the proceeds to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital. We thought that was a great way to re-home his prize to someone else that really could use it - and help make a difference to a worthy charity at the same time.

So we are holding at silent auction for this conical and cooling lid that will go to the highest bidder. 100% of the proceeds will go directly to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital. Bidding starts TODAY and will go though 11:59 PM, on Wednesday, May 31st, 2023. Tie bids go to the first bidder at that amount. Shipping is not included. The winner of the prize will need to either pick it up in person, or will have to pay an additional amount for the shipping of their choice to their home. Pickup will be on Tuesday, June 6th, at 6:00PM at the clubhouse. If that time does not work, then please feel free to email [email protected] to arrange a different pickup time.
