BIDDING IS NOW CLOSED!

Thanks so much to each of you who shared the page, placed a bid, and supported this years auction! Can't wait to post the Winner's List! I will try to have it up and ready for viewing by tomorrow around lunch time!

I really couldn't pull off this project without you. Thank You!

Updates... And LOTS of bids!

Just so ya'll  know... I have several bids that have not been updated yet, and I'm afraid they will not make it on the webpage before the auction ends... though I am steadily working on it! Bids are all being logged on my paper copy, and will be added to the comments as I get to them! They will still count, even if I don't have them on the site until after the closing time... (which is now just 5 mins away!)
Thanks for your patience!

Placing your bids....

Just a quick reminder on HOW to place a bid...

To place a bid on an item leave your name, your email address, and your maximum bid amount, in the comments section of the post. Comments will be accepted, but moderated, and kept private. They will NOT show up on the post. A confirmation email will be sent out to each bidder. If you do not receive confirmation by the end of the day when you place your bid, Please contact me by email with name, bid amount, and email address, and I will add it manually.  


FOLKS, I need your contact info... You cannot just leave an amount with no name, or email address... I have received several bids like this, and I have no way to contact you to let you know I received it.... Or to let you know if you are the winner!  

Once again...
