Ways you can help the auction:
Solicit 2-3 donations for the Auction. This can be from your hairdresser, your barber, or any other business that you frequent.
Let us know if you or your company has a spare laptop the auction could use.
We are looking for a solid auction committee. Many of you already volunteer in your children’s classes a morning or afternoon a week. If you can spare a few hours a week please sign up.
If you have ideas about how we can improve our auction or ideas that you have seen work at other fundraisers we are all ears. Please don’t hesitate to send your input to us. Contact Stacy at 227-1385 or sroberson33@hotmail.
Save February 12th for a fun evening with us!
Donation should be brought to the Polaris Office and placed in the Red Buckets labeled Donation Items. Please fill out a donation form, which are on the table next to the buckets, so that we can get the information in the Auction Catalog. This is a three part form meant for you to take the pink copy for your tax records. We will need all donations in by Feb 8th to make it into the catalog.
