Hi Mary,

I've never put a silent auction together but have
attended one. In this case it was a fundraiser for an
AIDS organization. This is a blurb from a "press
release". I think silent autions are fun and if you
haven't attended one, you should I'm sure it would
inspire you and help you plan.

HTH :)

Annual chocolate festival and silent auction...
For a $15 donation, chocolate lovers can sample from
60+ chocolate desserts donated by local restaurants
and bakeries. Attendees can bid on artwork, clothing,
gift certificates, weekend getaways and more during
the silent auction.

===================

We're planning a silent auction as part of a major
fundraising weekend scheduled for October.  Do any of
you have experience with silent auctions? What auction
items have been popular?  Have any of you put
together irresistible garden packages?  What's been in
them?  Information on anything that has worked well is
greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

Mary Dragich
