WE NEED YOUR SILENT AUCTION DONATIONS!!

The Silent Auctions’s success depends on the contribution of auction items such as:

• Time at a vacation home;

• Sporting or cultural tickets;

• Services such as handyman, accounting, snow shoveling, babysitting or other;

• Services you would like someone to provide to you (e.g. sidewalk shoveling, house cleaning, grocery shopping, a ride, putting up/taking down your Christmas tree (please indicate how much you will donate and the length of service);

• Art – prints, paintings, photos;

• More valuable new or used items (too good for Treasures);

• Theme baskets;

• Homemade dinners or eatables (at your home or delivered) (past favorites are theme dinners, desserts, cinnamon buns, wine tasting);

• Handcrafted items;

• Collectables or antiques;

• Donations from local businesses.

• Gift certificates to local businesses, restaurants, entertainment

Please make a tax-deductible donation and then come and donate your dollars to the Church by taking advantage of the generosity of the gifts of others!! Remember your donations and your purchases benefit the Church!!

Items can be dropped off at  Carpenter Hall on Friday November 6 between 9-5, or on Saturday November 7^th before 9:30am. Or, arrange for special pickup by calling Peggy Greenwood.  Donation receipts will be provided following the auction.

Please try to get your form/call in by Sunday October 31st so that we can advertise the upcoming opportunities to the congregation! We will, however, accept donation forms through November 12^th. Forms and questions maybe directed to  Peggy Greenwood or Bettie Clark or Donna Cartwright.  The forms maybe left in the Silent Auction box in the Saegmuller Room.
