Welcome to our Hospitality Room
Here is where we socialize throughout the reunion. We hold Raffles,                
Silent Auctions, and a Chinese Auction.
Chinese Auction:
This is where you
purchase tickets (usually
6 for $5).
Sometimes the
tickets are sold $10.00
for an arms length.
You
place as many tickets as
you wish into the
container corresponding
with the gift that you
select. One winning
ticket is then pulled from
the container.
Silent Auction:
A paper and pen is
placed in front of the
item that is displayed on
the table. You sign your
name and place your bid
amount. They usually
start with a minimum
bid amount. This is a
timed auction. It usually
runs about two days to
give you time to bid. At
the end of the timed
period the winning
bidder is announced.
Auction items are donated to the club. Some are hand made one of a kind items,
others are commercially made items. All profits go to the club. The money
collected goes into the Presidents pocket. All kidding aside, it goes to pay for our
liquid refreshments and snacks in the hospitality room, this web site, postage,
printing and a host of other costs. A full accounting of our monies is made in the
treasurers report. Which is made during our business meeting held at an announced
time at the reunion.
Here's some lucky winners of a small portion of the gifts offered.
