About the auction:
Money raised from the Scooter Scramble Auction go directly towards the Robert "Scooter" Tiemann TEENPOWER Scholarship Fund, which awards scholarships for students to attend TEENPOWER. Our Scooter Scholarship recipients are bright leaders who deserve the chance to develop their skills, learn to serve others, and meet peers and adults who care and who will help them succeed.
