Auction donation form

As our 22nd  Annual Holiday Auction nears, we are requesting member assistance in organizing, planning, attending and donating products or services for our fund raising event.

 

Consider the promotional value of providing your services or products.  Donating a prize for a Chamber event can be an effective form of advertising.  Bidders have a chance to actually sample the products or services you provide.  The donor’s name will be displayed with the prize as well as mentioned in the Chamber Newsletter; local news print; the event program; and with the product /service/material/gift certificates donated. 

 

      Some businesses may wish to provide a Cash Donation & co-sponsor an item off our wish list; or purchase an item from local retailers to be donated. I have included a few of the items from our wish list that we will purchase with the cash donations. (TV, DVD player * weekend getaway * fuel & gas cards * artwork * home goods * outdoor lawn & garden furniture * ski equipment, tickets * golf items & packages * camera * bikes, trikes, autos * canoe & kayak * etc).

 

The public, employees, friends and family are invited to attend. 

 

The auction is an excellent networking vehicle; a chance to meet fellow business people; a fun evening; and a way to provide support for your local chamber.
