Quarter Auction Fundraiser (Aug 27)

A fun evening is in store as we continue to raise money for our pastor’s sabbatical.

coinsIf you’ve never attended a Quarter Auction, here’s the jist:  The best way to explain it is that is like an auction … and like bingo!  When you arrive (if you wish to bid) you will  purchase a paddle for $1.  A matching-numbered ball will be placed into a bin.  Each item up for bid will be displayed for all guests to see.  Guest will give their bid (quarters) 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 in the container and go to the next item to be auctioned.

Still CONFUSED?  No worries~come and see for yourself!  It is a fun filled night for all that will benefit our sabbatical fund!

How can you help?  The committee is in need of food items:  all-beef hot dogs and buns, individual snack bags of chips, cans of soft drink and bottles of water (see sigh-up board in the Narthex).

We also need new items to be auctioned or raffled (such as theme baskets, bath and body products, decorative candles, home or kitchen items, collectibles, artwork, etc.).  All items are needed by August 16.  If you have questions … and we are sure you do … please contact the church office at (513) 422-2853.
