I plan on sharing my ideas for the silent auction at the meeting tomorrow. It would be really beneficial to the planning of this event if my fellow hakkers came up with lists of companies local and otherwise to solicit donations from. I have letters to send to these companies after I verify the location and finalize the date of the event. Things to keep in mind for donations: 1.tangible gifts bring in more money then vouchers I.e. a basket containing a bottle of wine and glasses from a local winery would fetch more cash then a voucher for a free tour of the same winery.
2. Any small donation can be combined with others to make bigger gifts I.e. a gift card to a hotel , a restaurant and a bottle of wine can be put on a basket to make a date night basket. 3. We will have a variety of guests so we should have a variety of gifts fun gifts for single folks as well as families 4. Also I would like to request donations from members I.e I would donate a skirt or piece of jewelry , g could donate a boat ride and picnic on the lake etc. This is a huge endeavor and I can't plan it alone. But with everyone's help we can make a successful annual fundraiser that we can turn into a night that friends of SYNHAK look forward to every year Thank you for your help Becca
