SILENT AUCTION

Thursday, April 12, 2012

7-9 p.m.

Boulder Senior Center (909 Arapahoe Ave., Boulder, CO -- 9^th and Arapahoe, northeast corner --
enter the parking lot west of the Boulder Public Library)

Come to buy, come to sell, come to schmooze and snack.

Food, fun, competition, commerce, and rocks—who could ask for more?

Sellers' forms are available in Flatirons Facets, at meetings, and will be sent to area clubs.

The time has come, folks, for our semiannual silent auction, so gather round for another exciting time. Bring your items for sale to the West Side Senior center at 7 p.m. So please search your basement and garage for appropriate items—we need more!  Specimens, fossils, books, videos, tools, software, beads, and jewelry—anything you think might attract buyers at a silent auction for rockhounds and lapidarists.

Please note: It is not necessary to sign up in advance to sell items at the auction.

There will be a limited number of tables so space will be available on a first-come first-served basis. Sellers are asked to limit their items to about 1/4th of a table.

We are in need of volunteers to help at the Silent Auction. We need people to:

- bring the closed tables to the stage and lift them up on the stage

- unload the tables on the stage

- take care of the Last Chance table

- move materials between the stage and the Last Chance table on a hand cart

- manage the sign-in table at the door

- check out people and their purchases at the end of the auction (see Gerry Naugle)

Our Silent Auctions have always been very popular and we expect that this one will be no exception. There is always a good variety of items to buy. So bring your rock related items to sell, and be sure to bring plenty of money to cover those treasures that you are sure to find.

See you at the auction!
