There are over 100 fantastic things up for bids. Feel free to bring a friend or two to this adult only, licensed event. We have a lot to bid on and the more the merrier!

Silent Auction Items – Can You Help?

Posted on November 6, 2013 | Comments Off on Silent Auction Items – Can You Help?

Live-AuctionWe have collected many wonderful items for the Gledhill SACA Silent Auction on November 22! If you would like to contribute but need some ideas, perhaps some of these might spark your imagination:

  • Do you, or someone you know, have season tickets to the Leafs?
  • How about tickets for the theatre or the movies?
  • Do you have a favourite restaurant? Ask them for a donation. It’s great advertising for them.
  • Perhaps you can offer a Toronto CityPASS, entrance to our amazing new Ripley’s Aquarium of Canada
  • or a lift up the CN Tower…
  • If you love to shovel or have a snow blower, perhaps offer a gift certificate for snow removal.
  • Host a party.
  • If you love to house paint, offer to paint a room.
  • Cook a dinner, maybe vegetarian?
  • Dog walking
  • Interior design? Offer a couple of hours of design advice.
  • Do you have a cool job? How about bringing someone to your work?
  • Are you artistic? Offer to draw a caricature or donate a work of art.
  • If you have a cottage, how about providing a weekend away?
  • If you’re handy, could you offer a couple of hours of handyman services?
  • Can you teach self-defense, cake decorating, scrapbooking?
  • How about guitar or piano lessons, web design? Or photography?
  • If you are a knitter, maybe you can offer up something to keep us warm in the cold months ahead.

Should you require a letter of introduction from Gledhill about the auction, please contact me and I will provide that to you. ( rourkenassif@sympatico.ca ).

Thank you and see you at the Auction!
