This year the Salvage Showdown is going to be bigger and better than ever. With a goal of raising over $100,000, the ReBuilding Center is raising the stakes! They are inviting back some of their best builders, and challenging all of the woodworkers, artisans, and experienced craftspeople in our community to throw their hat in the ring to compete for the coveted Scrappy Award. 

This year's ticketed event features:

  • A beer and wine reception,
  • A seated dinner in our lumberyard,
  • Presentation of The Scrappy to the top vote-getting Builder, and
  • An exciting live auction of a selection of builds to raise money in support of our work!
