Message from Liz Casey, Yuletide Gala Auction Chair
It is my pleasure to once again welcome you to
the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Foundation 2011
Yuletide Gala Auction. We hope you are excited for
the wonderful evening we have in store for you!
Proceeds from this year’s event will help purchase
gynecological equipment specific to woman that
will be used in the QEH Operating Room. With this
new equipment, the specially trained healthcare
professionals at the QEH can continue to provide
quality care to Islanders at home without having to travel off-Island for care.
I would like to thank members of the organizing committee for coming
together to plan and execute this fantastic event. The QEH Foundation
staff and volunteers have worked tirelessly to ensure we’ve covered
everything down to the last detail. We are also very grateful to the many
individuals and businesses that have so generously donated auction items.
On behalf of my husband, Tim, and our children, Thomas and Clare, I wish
you all the best this holiday season and in the coming New Year!
Gratefully,

The Yuletide Gala Auction Procedure
The Yuletide Gala Auction provides the opportunity for you to bid on and buy
outstanding high quality items. Before bidding begins, please take a few
moments to view the wonderful items available this year. Items that will be
part of the Live (Main) Auction are displayed in the private dining room. Silent
Auction items are displayed in the Abegweit Room as well as just outside the
doors.
Seating – Tonight’s seating has been pre-arranged and an assigned bidding
paddle will be at your table.
The Live (Main) Auction – All bidders must have an auction ‘paddle.’ This
will help us to identify bidders throughout the evening. Then, please bid often,
bid fast, but most important, bid. It is fun being an active participant, and at
the end of the evening hopefully you will be the successful bidder on some
exceptional items.
The Silent Auction – Tonight, there are numerous items in the Silent Auction.
All you need to do is register your bid using your paddle number or your name,
and the price you wish to pay for the item. Throughout the evening, the Silent
Auction tables will close in blocks at the times outlined in this booklet. It will be
announced when the items will close and how long you have left to bid on the
item. We ask that you increase your silent bids by increments of $10 or more.
You should update your bids often and concentrate on when the items are
closing to ensure you won’t be disappointed!
Payment of Auction Items – Successful bidders may present themselves at
the cashier’s table just outside the Abegweit Room at the close of the evening
to arrange payment. Payment may be made by debit, cash, cheque, VISA or
MasterCard. Interac machines will be available to process payments this year.
We request you redeem your auction item/package within the year out of
respect for the donors of the items. Title to the auction items remains with the
QEH Foundation until you have made full payment. Larger items may be picked
up by Monday, November 21, 2011.
Raffle – The Raffle tickets will be sold while viewing items and again during
dinner. The winning raffle ticket will be drawn for during a break following
dinner.
Buy it Now – There is a silent auction table of gift certificates that provide
you with the option of buying the item now without having to watch the item
throughout the evening. The value you must pay for the item is stated on the
bidding card. You can also bid the traditional way on these items until the ‘buy
it now’ value is reached. This table will remain open until all items have been
purchased.
