Monies solicited from the public to advance various charitable activities cannot be used for internal administrative cost of our club. Each year, club members are asked to donate goods or services and we hold an “In-House Auction” to raise funds to cover these administrative costs. This keeps our club dues more reasonable!! To prevent our dues rate from increasing, your participation in the auction is VERY important to the club.
All members are encouraged to make a donation and attend the auction. Be creative! Some examples of past donated items include: homemade baked goods, computer lessons, turkey dinner tickets, gift cards, an evening of dinner at home, dinner out, airport shuttles, handcrafted items, use of rototiller or truck, snow blowing service, firewood, beach house or condo time, airplane rides, antiques, collectibles, athletic event tickets, telephone installation, auto detailing, yard work, lottery tickets, liquor, furniture, jewelry, clothes and bric-a-brac ~ your imagination is the limit. This is a marvelous time to unload that holiday present you weren’t so excited to receive. Items can be either new or used.
Even if you will be out of town we can still sell your item for the benefit of the club. Cash donations to the club treasury are also accepted.
