The Next Big Thing
Dinner for 4 at Next. Saturday, May 12, 2012 at 6:30 pm. Enjoy the extraordinary elBulli 29-course tasting
menu -- wine pairings, tax and service included. Kick of the meal with a cocktail at Aviary -- you have a
reservation there as well (6:00 pm).
What made El Bulli so special? After all, it wasn't just diners who crossed oceans for the pilgrimage, it was
master chefs who would flock there in droves to work for free. Now you can find out for yourself.
Don't just bid on this because Next is currently the hardest reservation in the country. Don't just bid on it
because the menu includes dishes from every decade of El Bulli, a restaurant that no longer exists, but was
widely considered to be the best in the world. Don't just bid on it because there's only one seating a night, and
the tables are all held by season ticket-holders which sold out within ten seconds. Don't just bid on this
because Next is in such demand that it sold 72 two-top tables in one day for $4000 and $5000/each. Don't
just bid on it because Grant Achatz is quickly becoming a national treasure. Bid on this dinner because Chef
Dave Beran will serve you dishes that you'll be talking about for weeks to come; it is everything it's chalked up
to be, and more -- and you can share it with your friends.
Great for Group Bidding - 2 couples.
This is a ticket for a four-person table on Saturday, May 12 at 6:30pm. The date and time of the Next ticket
and Aviary reservation cannot be changed or cancelled. There are no refunds. If you do not show up for the
date and time of your ticket, you forfeit your ticket. The ticket cannot be transferred to another party, except
through the official Next online ticketing transfer system. Any other method renders the ticket invalid. No
dietary restrictions can be accommodated in any way for any reason. No substitutions or other changes can
be made to menu items. Cannot be resold. Expires: May 12, 2012. Includes dinner, beverages, gratuity and
tax.

A Magic Kingdom & A Lost Continent
Here's the family trip you've been waiting for...Your family (up to 6) will spend three nights in a luxury 2
BR suite at the Waldorf Astoria Orlando. You'll have 6 Magic Your Way tickets for access to any one of
the four Disney Theme Parks. Interested in the new Harry Potter attraction at Universal Studios? You'll
have time to check it out, because you'll Skip the Lines on the other rides with these 6 Express Pass
upgrades. Have a blast running around Downtown Disney, then enjoy a casual family dinner at Pollo
Campero or Fresh A'Peel and a delicious dessert at Babycakes.
Then, a quick puddle-jumper flight will land you directly on Paradise Island in the Bahamas for four nights in
an exquisite Atlantis Reef Penthouse. Elite Traveler magazine calls the Penthouse at the Reef, "one of the
most desirable places in the world to spend the night," and you'll be spending 4 nights! Stars and professional
athletes pay upwards of $10,000/night for the privilege of staying in this lavishly appointed 3,000 sq. ft.
unit. Sprawled-out over three bedrooms, it sleeps 8, so have the grandparents or a sitter meet you down there
-- there's plenty of room for everyone! No detail was missed when they designed the gourmet kitchen, elegant
living room, and floor-to-ceiling windows that offer stunning ocean views. Situated directly on Paradise
Beach, you'll never have to spend a moment settling for anything other than the very best. Inhale the ocean air
with a relaxing break on one of the extensive wrap-around terraces, or head out for the excitement of Atlantis,
where you'll find world-class dining, fabulous pools and 24-hour bustling activity. Best of all, your Penthouse
comes with a Private Butler! Only available to celebrities, owners and VIP's like you, your Butler will take
care of any arrangements you need and then some... Wanna get into a sold out restaurant? Swim with the
dolphins? Go deep sea fishing? Done. Done. Done. The ability to get what you want when you want it while
on vacation through the Penthouse butler's access is truly priceless.
Now that's the way to travel with kids!

talk about what an incredible experience you just had and how lucky you were to have it.
You're never going to forget you did this, and that's what life is truly made of -- memories of unforgettable
moments. Here's a chance to do something so special while giving an incredible gift to the children of Parker.

Emmys or Grammys -- You Choose
They both have red carpets, they both have outrageous stars, they're both ridiculously fun, and they're both
great shows...so which one will you choose?
Two Academy Member tickets to the Emmy Awards and HBO's After Party
or
Two Grammy Foundation Board Member tickets to the Grammy Awards
If you choose the Emmys, you'll be talking and walking with the hottest stars on the planet as you stroll into
the Nokia Theater on September 23, 2012. Never have so many A-listers graced the small screen, and you'll
be hanging out with them at the red-hot HBO After Party. Have your picture taken in front of the
HBO step-and-repeat banner, walk the red carpet into a tent full of familiar faces (because they're all famous),
grab a cocktail and start chatting up an Emmy-winner. You can't get any more up close and personal than this.
Don't forget to have brunch at the Belvedere Restaurant at the Beverly Hills Peninsula Hotel the next day (it's
where all of your new HBO BFFs stay).
The Grammys, on the other hand, is so much more than an award show -- it's a super concert! Next February,
you'll have extraordinary Grammy Foundation Board Member seats adjacent to the nominees (Section
119, likely Row 11 or better, amongst the top 2% of seats in the arena) to experience the excitement of music's
biggest night. Every top level performer comes out to "kill it" on stage in front of their colleagues. If you are a
music fan, your heart will be jumping out of your chest. You'll also have VIP access to the Grammy and
Staples Center pre-and post show parties.
Whatever you choose, your weekend will look something like this...With two roundtrip tickets on Southwest
Airlines, you'll fly into LAX and check into the luxurious Loews Santa Monica Beach Hotel for a three
night stay. Try to avoid the paparazzi when you have dinner at Mastro's where you're bound to "see and be
seen" like the other celebs that frequent the joint. Head on over to Hollywood for some world-class shopping
armed with a $1000 gift certificate to Jenni Kayne and a gift card for 4 pairs of Paige Jeans. Take lunch at
the famed Ivy Restaurant. You're almost red carpet ready, but you still need some bling -- and you'll have it
the way the stars do -- you'll borrow it! Holtzmann's across the street from Parker will set you up before the
trip. Now you're ready...but for what?!
Selection must be made immediately at the auction.

Lexus: The Pursuit of Perfection
What could possibly be more perfect than leasing a Lexus while simultaneously supporting a student on
scholarship? No haggling, no finance paperwork, just choose your Lexus, drive it for three years, and
instead of your money going to the dealership, it goes to scholarship. Simple. Is it an unusual way to get a
car? Maybe a little, but rest assured, you can still do your research after the auction -- Mike McGrath will
work with you personally to find the right 2012 Lexus model for you.
Choose from the following models, each loaded up with the premium package --Lexus RX, Lexus ES, Lexus
IS 250, Lexus CT Hybrid.* End of lease purchase options available, and if McGrath doesn't have the exact
color and options you want in stock, they will try to order it.
If you're in the market for a car, you couldn't leverage your "purchasing power" any more than by tying it to
scholarship.
Winning bidder must pay sales tax. If options other than the Premium Package are desired, bidder may pay
the difference. *Must take one of the four 2012 models offered if the winning bid does not exceed $20,000. If
winning bid exceeds $20,000 or winner is willing to pay the difference, McGrath will work with you to apply
your winning bid to the Lexus model of your choice, subject to lease availability. Winner must take
possession of the car by August 2012.

Villa Mayana in Costa Rica
Up to 16 of you can spend one week at at the stunning Villa Mayana in Costa Rica, recently named by
Vogue Germany as one of the "best vacation houses in the world." Spread out over 20,000 square feet on the
Achiote Coast (the pool is the size of a Lincoln Park lot), this luxurious 6 bedroom villa easily accommodates
three or four families, but with its 4 master suites, each with its own bath and private terrace, it would be an
unbelievable get-away-from-it-all vacation for 4 couples as well.
Even meals will be relaxing because we've arranged for a Private Chef to shop and prepare all of your meals.
Let's say you spend the morning deep sea fishing and reel in a catch -- your chef can clean it, grill it with a
little garlic and have it on your table next to a nice bottle of wine by lunch. The Villa's on-site concierge can
arrange for any nearby excursions (like horseback riding, zip lining, fishing or surfing), but we doubt you'll
ever want to leave. Ever!
Villa Mayana is currently available during Parker's February and April breaks in 2013.

French Riviera (1 week)
Your group of ten will spend one week on the French Riviera in a medieval village perched above the
Mediterranean. (We admit that you've seen this in our live auctions before, but we sought it out again when the
winning bidders came back and raved about it. We're told this may be the last time). How do they describe it?
Whether sitting in the classical garden, lounging by the pool or reading on one of the numerous
terraces, you can never escape the breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea. Sip your coffee,
sample your cheese and wine all within the magical walls of spectacularly restored monastery,
now a whimsical home. You can cook from any of the three kitchens, climb through rolling
streets down to the beach and explore any number of historic castles or small villages in the area.
It's a wonderful place for couples to escape and for families to explore. Each room is impeccably
decorated; you want to stroll through all the rooms and discover the mysteries of the house.
Gourmet restaurants and quaint cafes can be found right outside the main door to the house, but
you're also just minutes from Monaco and Monte Carlo. The home easily accommodates 10

Rayan-Forero Concert & Dinner Party at Graff
This magical and once-in-a-lifetime evening will surely be an extraordinarily precious experience.
Internationally renowned harpist (and new Parker parent) Maria Luisa Rayan-Forero usually plays to the likes
of Carnegie Hall, but for your party of 16, she will grant you a private concert amongst the sparkling jewels of
Graff Diamonds on Oak Street. A jewel herself, Ms. Rayan-Forero has been described by the New York
Concert Review as "an extremely talented, accomplished performer who can keep an audience listening with
rapt attention," which is good, because you're going to find the beautiful surroundings of "the most fabulous
jewels in the world" at Graff a tad distracting. Don't worry, though, you'll have your chance to try on anything
you want in the store -- have you ever worn a $3M diamond cuff? Try it on for size while enjoying cocktails

Kadishman Poster (Signed)
Menashe Kadishman is one of the few Israeli artists to succeeded in reaching out to an international audience.
His artistic vision, however, was firmly rooted in his Israeli origins. His paintings of sheep are a handwriting;
he uses sheep as a means of exploring two aspects of his art language, that of painting in color and that of idea.
For Kadishman, the sheep are a metaphor of life. He has shown at one-man exhibitions all over the world,
and he has personally signed this iconic print.
