and will be collected by volunteers. The bid sheets will
be inspected and winning bids will be circled, so
check to see if you are the winner. All your winning
sheets will be in your folder at checkout.
When the auctioneer announces the “Heads or Tails”
game during the live auction, stand up and put your
hands on your head for “heads” or on your behind for
“tails”. The auctioneer will flip a coin and if you have
