I agree, this sounds like fun, and a painless way to score some donations. A
couple of "white elephant" donations would probably liven things up, although
we wouldn't want to overdo it.

They do this at my wife's family reunion and sometimes
the same items are brought back year after year and
bought and traded back and forth. It has become a lot
of fun to see who gets the "trophy" this year. Also it
brings in quite a bit of money with which they buy the
food for the next reunion and maintain the upkeep of
the family cemetery. It is great fun and a great idea.
I volunteer to bring a couple of ammo boxes for the
auction if we have one. Maybe even fill them so they
are ready to go caches!!! :O
