Join me at the auction!
There are few things that get my adrenaline going like a good ol’ auction! As a young 4-Her, I gave my parents a few gray hairs by raising my hand – again and again. I remember my mom saying, “Do you know for sure that you have enough money in your checking account to cover that ewe?”
Fast forward about 30 years and I still love a good auction … especially one with Coach® purses and week-long vacations to tropical climates! Today’s technology allows a person to participate in this auction in one of three ways: (1) in person; (2) by sending your bid with someone; or (3) online. Plus, it all goes to a good cause because proceeds benefit the Iowa 4-H Foundation. (Side Note: My husband just loves it when I flash him a smile and say, “It’s going to a great cause, Honey.” LOL.)
The list of auction items is being updated continuously, so be sure to bid early and often. Bidders will be contacted via e-mail when they’ve been outbid. Online bidding ends at 5 p.m. on Feb. 18. All of the auction items are listed at http://www.iowa4hfoundation.org/news/events/Gala/galauctionindex.htm.
The inaugural 4-H Gala was held last February in Des Moines, and it was a wonderful first-time event. But honestly, I believe this year’s gala is going to be even better!
I hope you’ll join me in supporting the Iowa 4-H Foundation’s 2nd annual gala and auction. Tickets are still available if you’d like to attend in person. For more information, visit http://www.iowa4hfoundation.org/gala/.
