SILENT
AUCTION DETAILS

4:30 – End of
Dinner (~6:30pm) – bids will
be closed around the end of dinner, when dessert is being served

 

What is it? A number of businesses and individuals have
donated items to our auction. Some are products such as paddles or a helmet and
others are services such swift water rescue lessons, a lesson in making homebrew
beer, or gear rentals for your next big trip. The item available will be
displayed on tables with a retail price and a minimum bid on a piece of paper.
>From opening until the conclusion of dinner, you can write a bid on the paper.
At the end of dinner, the item will go to the highest bidder. You will make
your payment after dinner and take the item with you. 

 

Benefit? The funds raised will be applied to the
holiday party to offset the cost of the facility. This allows us to provide
free movies, discounted water park passes, free socializing by a fire pit (or
in ballroom pending weather), and discounted meal prices.  If more money
is raised than is needed for the event, it will be split evenly among the three
community-based host organizations and go directly into our local paddling
community. 

 

What if you
would like to make a silent auction donation or help with managing the auction
during the event? Donations to
our silent auction would be greatly appreciated! We will recognize all donors
at the holiday party and after as well.  Please
contact Christine Mollo at sonorajo at hotmail.com
with the item, description, retail price, and suggested minimum bid or let her
know if you would be interested in helping oversee the auction at the event (4:15-5:30
displaying the items, answering people’s questions, and then accepting payment
after dinner).
