A fun evening is in store as we raise money for our children to attend church camp. If you have never attended a Quarter Auction, here’s the gist: It is like an auction…and like bingo! If you wish to bid, you will donate $1 for a numbered paddle. A matching numbered disc will be placed into a bin. Each item up for bid will be displayed for all guests to see. Guests will give their bid (raffle tickets worth a quarter purchased upon arrival) and hold up their numbered paddle. When all bids are collected, the auctioneer will draw a numbered chip from the container to determine the winner. Once we have a winner, all chips will be placed back into the container and go to the next item to be auctioned. Still confused? – See our committee chairs: Charlotte Steele, Ginger Alley, and Karen Powers.
How can you help?
1. Donate items for the concession stand. Sign up on the sheet in the narthex.
2. Donate a new item to be auctioned: theme basket, bath and body products, home or kitchen items, etc. A list of possible items will soon be on an insert in your worship bulletin.
3. Attend the auction and participate! IT IS FUN!
