WBNA Silent Auction Donations Needed
Seems like the WBNA Silent Auction comes up quicker each year! The annual auction is our BIG fundraiser and takes place during the WB MUD 4th Fest celebration. Monies raised help support the various WBNA community events: the Easter Egg Hunt, National Night Out, Pumpkin Painting and our participation in WB MUD Halloween Trunk or Treat, and the crafts at Luminary Fest as well as on-going town hall meetings and community seminars.
Donating to the WBNA Silent Auction is a GREAT way to promote your business and give back to our community! We are seeking donations of merchandise, gift cards, themed baskets, and service certificates. Valuable exposure for your business includes two weeks on our amazing auction website and a place at the live auction on July 4th. The online auction has a rotating featured item section along with item details and links to your website. Plus there’s a special “Thank You” section in the September issue of our newsletter. If you have items or services to donate please email us at silentauction@wbna.us
Along with support from our local businesses, services and local area attractions, we would LOVE donations from community friends and family. Over the years donations from neighbors’ have helped create some awesome gift baskets! Do you have gently used or new items to clear out? Please contact us with your treasures! Unique items are what make the auction so special.
We have already begun accepting donations. Don’t miss the DEADLINES: Items to be included in the online auction must be received by June 22. Live auction donations will be gratefully accepted through June 30. Please contact Margaret Sufke, 512-341-0428, with any specific questions.
Volunteers Needed:
We are seeking event volunteers to help solicit items, prepare the baskets and/or work the auction. If you have any empty baskets leftover from last year, we’d love to have them! Please email us at silentauction@wbna.us and watch for the link to the event volunteer site.
