Silent Auction and Teacher Auction at SWV Carnival
Silent Auction and Teacher Auction at SWV Carnival
How do these auctions work?
6:00–7:30 PM: Everyone may bid on the items by placing an amount they are willing to pay for the item on the bidding form next to the item.
Note: You may be outbid by someone willing to pay more for the item. Make sure you check on the auction items you bid on during the night and place a higher bid if you want.
7:30 PM: The top bidding sheets will be collected. The copy will be left on the table. The highest bidder (or the specified number of highest bidders in case of multiple identical items) may take the copy sheet and proceed to pay for and pick up their item at the school entrance.
7:45 PM: Payments for winning bids are accepted (cash, check or credit/debit cards).
What is sold at the Silent Auction?
Items and services are donated from the community and our school family. If you have an item to donate, contact Lindsay Zahn: lnzahn@gmail.com .
What is sold at the Teacher Auction?
Experiences with the teachers and staff that they have come up with and are donating. Examples from past years include going to a movie theater with the teacher, a lunch (at a local restaurant) with the teacher.
The teacher/staff pays for the activity included in the auction (e.g. movie tickets if the activity is a movie theater visit with teacher).
Remember: these auctions raise money for the kids’ learning experience.
Have fun!
