Hello fellow support group members. Our 2024 picnic/BBQ is just around the corner! I would like to take a moment to explain to you how the raffle prizes and silent auction items will be done this year. 

Almost 60 items have been donated this year! Approximately 40 of them will be on a raffle table and the other 20 will be in the silent auction.

Each person at the barbecue will get 1 free raffle ticket. Additional tickets can be purchased at the following rates.

5 for $5

12 for $10

25 for $20

The silent auction items will have a bid sheet next to them. You can write down your name and the amount you want to bid for that particular item. You should go back frequently to make sure you have not been outbid. There will be a cut off time for the last bids. (That time will be announced at the picnic)

Remember, this is our only fundraiser for the year. Think about Christmas gifts and birthday gifts for yourself and loved ones. It is a win-win for everyone.

Please bring cash or checks. We cannot accept credit cards.

Following is a sample of some of the items that will be in the silent auction!

Hi friends,

It’s time for our annual support group picnic, a highlight of our summer fun! You just received an email with photos of some of our Awesome Auction items. They are amazing donations from our generous members, but I’m afraid the photos may not have made it through. I’ll keep trying!

Also I wanted to mention a few of the equally fabulous raffle items that have been donated – gift cards, pottery items, handmade quilts, jewelry, lavender items, medical items, homemade pies, baked goods, and much more.

We can’t wait to see you!
