Dan, it looks like 'they' have been or just started
planning on an auction, but it I guess it was privileged info that I
was not in on. I tried to get an auction going last year, but... and
tried again earlier this spring. After my email this morning it looks
like a tiny little note was posted by BWAT on the event page. I guess
the people that have all ready logged in on the event page probably
will not see the note. Bernie

Bernie,
I like the idea of an auction ..I am 90% sure we are going to
make it and if we do I will bring an ammo box with log book and pencil
as my donation. My wife's family has done this every year at their
family reunion and they usually raise enough to pay for the food etc at
the next reunion. Some how we need to get the idea out to everyone
coming though as not everyone is subscribed to this list ....maybe put
a small blurb on the picnic page itself asking for people's donations.
Good idea
Dan
- Are we still having the auction?
As we discussed before, it will put a few bucks into our kitty at
absolutely NO COST to us. I would be willing to take charge, but don't
expect too much. I have a very informal plan in mind. Lay your
donations on a specified table and have a "secretary" log the items in
or better yet, log it in yourself.. During the auction, the secretary
makes a note (on the sheet where the items were logged in) of who
purchased each item and for how much. After the auction is complete, we
collect our "winnings". Suggested time to hold this auction would be
right after we eat. If it's a go, bring any item (does not have to be
cache related) that you are willing to donate. Suggestions are: all
types of cache containers, items that could be placed into the cache
boxes, fishing and hiking items, advertising items or trinkets (bundled
up in to individual baggies). In short, anything that is collecting
dust around the house. These are only my thoughts and nothing is
gospel. Let me know what you think. Bernie the Happykraut.
