| Rules for Silent Auction Bidders will use the number on their event ticket to place bids on the Silent Auction items. A starting bid and bid increment will be given at the top of each bid sheet. Any item that receives bids from 2 or more bidders in the last 5 minutes of the allotted bid time will be moved to the LIVE Auction. Live bidding for these items will be limited to those bidders who placed bids in the last 5 minutes of the Silent Auction. High bidder wins the item. |

| What is a CHANCE AUCTION??? Each event ticket includes 25 CHANCE TICKETS - participant uses those tickets to "bid" on a variety of items on "auction." They can bid as many tickets as they wish on each item they're interested in by depositing the tickets in a container assigned to that item. Rather than going to the highest bidder, though, as it would at a regular auction, the item goes to the person whose ticket is drawn, at random, from the container. It doesn't take long to figure out, of course, that the more tickets you bid on an item, the better your chances are of winning it. And as anyone who's ever bid a lot of tickets on a "must-have" item can tell you, that's what makes these CHANCE AUCTIONS so much fun. Additional CHANCE TICKETS will be available for purchase to increase your odds for that "must-have" item! $25 for each additional sheet of 25 tickets How it works There will be 10 CHANCE AUCTION items - each with a value of between $75 -$125 All of the CHANCE AUCTION items will be displayed with a corresponding ticket box next to each item. Bidders walk around and browse all the wares, bidding their tickets on favored items as they go. At a specified time, a winning ticket is drawn from each container. |
