School Benefit Auction

This last Friday night was our school's annual Basket Bonanza and Benefit Auction that I helped coordinate. We had 122 donated baskets that you would buy tickets and then stick them in the basket/s you wanted to win. If your number was drawn out, then you won the basket. We used the high school kids to bring the baskets up to the front and when the winner was drawn, they would run down and give it to the winner and then go get another basket.
Here are a few of the donated baskets.
Roger sold tickets to Mr. Hart, our principal

Dawson's 2nd grade teacher donated this frame of pictures of their class and Dawson won it! He was so excited.


Cooper even got in on the action and helped deliver baskets.

Brittany is holding a basket as the winning ticket is pulled out of the bag. After the baskets were all drawn, then we announced the winners of the silent auction and then we had a live auction. Of course, Roger bid and won a few. One of them was a gift card for 1 year of car washes as many times as you want at Squeaky Clean - no excuses for a dirty car for the next year!

What an undertaking to coordinate all of these baskets! Congrats to Dawson on winning a great class photo! Did your "Ticket Man" charge a lot for his services?
