Online Auction Raising Funds for Impacted Peter Hobart Families, Students

The online auction, a joint effort by the Peter Hobart PTAO and Muddy Paws Cheesecake, runs through 10 p.m. on Wednesday, June 5.

As the St. Louis Park community continues efforts to heal after the tragic events that killed two students and injured two others at Lilydale Park last month, the Peter Hobart PTAO is holding an online auction to raise funds for the impacted families and students. 

The PTAO's online auction—accessed at www.32auctions.com/peterhobartfamilies—is designed to generate funds to provide direct support to everyone touched by the incident. St. Louis Park's Muddy Paws Cheesecake is working alongside the PTAO to coordinate the auction. 

Funds will go to the families of the victims, according to organizers, as well as helping their classmates with additional metal health financial assistance in the coming months. 

Bidding kicked off at 9 a.m. on Saturday, June 1, and runs through 10 p.m. on Wednesday, June 5. Winners will be contacted on Thursday and Friday, June 6-7, then items will be available for pick-up through Sunday, June 9 at Muddy Paws Cheesecake, 7600 W. 27th St., Suite B2, St. Louis Park, MN 55426. 

Winners can also get their items delivered for an additional $8 to anywhere in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa or South Dakota. 

All items have been donated to the cause, ranging from massages to personal training to a variety of gift certificates.
