Discussion: Silent Auction

Don't forget to bring a donation for the Silent Auction to be held at the Sycamore Scramble on 2/21-22. We will begin collecting stuff at the Hampton Inn on Friday evening and will continue all day Saturday. We will accept all sorts of donations...baked goods are welcome.

The donations are coming in...but slowly. Let me know if you have something to donate then bring your money to the Scramble and see what kind of treasures you can find.

Donations of services is another great way to support the 2010 World University Orienteering Team. Can you make something? Bake something? Recane canoe seats? Help someone with their taxes? Offer your vacation cottage for a week? Create a gift basket? Organize an event for a club or individual?

Please also think about anything you have at home that could be valuable for an auction, even if you can't send it to the event. (I'm thinking used cross-country skis, kayak paddles, new-with-tags sweaters, a collection of something you no longer need.) A color photo and description sent to Linda as an attachment is all you need, provided you're willing to handle the shipping after the auction. The item doesn't have to be present at the Silent Auction... just a description of the item with one or more photos.

Thanks for anything you can do to help the WUOC Team get to Sweden this summer!
