Silent Auction Item Preview
April 13, 2015
Our Silent Auction will be this coming Saturday, April 18th, and we wanted to share the goodies that will be up for auction. I am really excited about these items, and I’m hoping to take a few of them home myself. 🙂
If you are unable to attend, but would like to bid anyway, you can send an email to info@openschooloc.com with your name, phone number, and address as well as what you would like to bid on and your maximum. We can either have someone bid for you up to your max, or call you during the event to consult on how to bid. However, there are some prizes and raffles that will only be available to attendees. Haven’t bought your tickets yet? There are a few spaces left, so click here and claim your spot!
