Lassen Park Foundation's board and staff produce fundraising events to supports the Foundation's overall programming. These events are open to the public and held at various locations in and around Lassen Volcanic National Park. Some events may be held virtually due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Peak Experience Auction
Peak Experience Auction is Lassen Park Foundation's largest annual fundraising event. Typically this event is held the third Saturday in September at the McConnell Foundation in Redding, CA. Unfortunately, due to the Dixie Fire this event has been postponed to November 13, 2021 and moved to a fully virtual event. All auction item bidding will be done online and you may register for free to bid. The livestream will take place on Saturday, November 13, 2021 starting at 6:30pm.

Discover Lassen
Due to the continued COVID-19 pandemic, Lassen Park Foundation has decided to cancel Discover Lassen in-person event for 2021. Lassen Park Foundation will be working closely with our park partners to produce a virtual event featuring our park rangers this summer.
2022 Dates TBA - Discover Lassen is a two-day fundraising event to benefit Lassen Park Foundation. The event focuses on encouraging guests to get to know Lassen Volcanic National Park (LAVO) for the first time or better than they already do. This family-friendly event is done over a two-day weekend with the first day focusing on the north end of the park (near Mazanita Lake) and the second day focusing on the south end of the park (near the Kohm Yah-mah-nee Visitor Center).
Love Your Pet Non-Event
LPF's Event Committee enjoyed presenting a second year of our winter Non-Event. National Love Your Pet Day was February 20, 2021. Pets are part of our families. They're dear to our hearts, and they love us with all of our faults, unconditionally. That's why we celebrated National Love Your Pet Day on February 20, 2021.
We spend thousands of dollars on our pets every year. Food and healthcare for our little friends is a must, but sometimes we go a bit overboard. Pampering, clothing, toys, or pillows are just a few ways we splurge to show our love. This year we went back to the basics! Instead of shopping or paying for a day at the pet-spa, we spent some quality one-on-one time with ours pet and sent the money saved to Lassen Park Foundation instead. It's a win-win situation!
