ADDITIONALLY this year
we have some super auction items. As many
of you know we have a number of “Silent”
Auction items each year. This year is no
exception. But THIS year we have some very
new and different items that you might want
to bid on. Each of these items can
be shipped, so you may bid on them “from
afar”.
|
|
Our first item for Friday is:

And last but not least.
Taking bids BOTH days is a Rob Sataloe original cartoon.
Rob drew this cartoon for ESSCLI-Rescue
to use on our website and then donated it to be auctioned off
with the proceeds to go to rescue.
We
have put it in a temporary glass frame as it is not only signed, but has a special
note on the back. It is NOT however professionally framed or matted just waiting for YOUR special touches!
We
will start the bidding at $40.00 for Rob’s original cartoon.

If you wish
to email your bid in advance, please email it to
Ndana101@aol.com. Please include your name, item you wish to bid on, the amount of your
bid and a phone number where you can be reached if need be. We will keep the bidders updated (kinda like EBAY!). If you are
the winner and you are not at the show, you will be asked to send a
check to rescue for the amount of your winning bid. If we do not
receive it by March 1st , the auction will go the second
highest bidder.
We will be
able to take bids until 10 PM est Tuesday February 5th via email. But
certainly if you are there in person, it will be even more fun. We
might not be able to keep people updated on the bidding during judging,
but we will do our best!
Have fun
and happy bidding! |
