The annual Live Auction is a time when members and friends get together to bid on items that have been donated by other members and friends. It is our biggest fundraising event of the year. In February and March members will submit donor forms to specify the items they wish to offer. April 1, a catalog will be available, describing all of the items to be auctioned. At the Live Auction, our auctioneers will encourage spirited bidding for all of the items.
The success of the auction depends on you.
