Auction–This year Saturday night, July 23 at the Hotel!
For the past four reunions, an average of $400 was raised at our famous Auction! These monies have helped to offset many of the costs of the reunion. Start planning now for what you will bring to the reunion. It’s a great money making event—and laughs and competition among all of us family members! Here are some of ideas—but the sky’s the limit! Cards will be available for you to write a short description so the auctioneer can describe it.
Here are some ideas:
- Baskets with homemade items, handiwork, wine
- Something that is special from the area where you live, e.g.maple syrup from the North, Pralines from the South, etc.
- Homemade food–fudge, dried spices.
- A framed family photo—it could be a simple snapshot, blown up at Walgreen’s, of cousins goofing around as kids!
- A new Jacket or T-shirt from the company you work for…or anything else that your company produces as promotional materials.
- Antiques/heirlooms from our family (small things like a special dish or a picture).
- Children can make craft items to auction
- New toys/Activities that the Kids can bid on
