course, higher increments are always welcomed.
6. There will be multiple bidding sheets for items with more than one
available, for example “Three King Adventures” will have 3 bidding
sheets.
7. Some of the items have specific conditions, such as time limit, availability, exclusions, etc. The buyer is responsible for determining these from
the material provided or from the donor. Tax, tip and gratuity are not
included unless otherwise stated.
8. All sales are final, and no exchanges or refunds are possible, unless the
minimum number of persons are not signed up and the event is cancelled.
9. As you enter your bids on the bidding sheets, it’s essential that you enter your name and paddle number each time you revise your bid.

2015 Spring Fundraising 8
11. When the Silent Auction ends at 6:50, you'll be asked to enter the
Best Exotic UU Live Auction. If you have reserved a front-row table,
you will be escorted to the best seats in the house. Otherwise, get another glass of wine and find a seat.
12. Table Monitors will gather the bid sheets and enter the Silent Auction
winners on a grid on a whiteboard in the Core Area, matching item
number with the winner’s paddle number. The completion of this
process will be announced. You are then free at any time to check the
white board in the Core Area for your Silent Auction winning numbers.
13. Cashiers will be in the library. Please do not line up to checkout until
your list is completely filled out. The Table Monitors will have delivered the bid sheets to the cashiers so that the amounts of the winning

16. Certificates and tickets will be held at check-out and given to you after
payment is received. Remember to enter event dates on your calendar!
17. Many of the brochure photographs are generic representations of the
auction items and not pictures of the actual item or event.
18. It is the Auction Committee’s intention to describe accurately all items
with the information provided by the auction’s generous contributors.
We did not appraise nor do we guarantee the fair retail market value. We
have made a good faith effort to furnish accurate information. In determining the tax deductibility of items purchased at the charitable auction,
Internal Revenue ruling 67-246 and subsequent rulings remind purchasers that no deduction is allowable except to the extent that the taxpayer
can show that his or her payment exceeded the retail market value of the
item or service received.
Remember to
take pictures of your event for next year’s
Auction brochure!
