We have decided to start the bidding on some of our auction items now, rather than wait until the date of the event, (May 1, 2010).  If you are interested you can send your bid via email to Dawn at wontondawn@comcast.net, and/or show up on the day of the event. Make sure to include your name, bid amount and phone number. 

There is no minimum opening bid or set bidding increments but there will be a reserve amount on each item.  This means that we will require a minimum amount to sell the items.  We won't be able to ship any items so buyers need to be from our area, (Olympia, WA).  Items that you can bid on presently are: 

*An autographed, game worn glove signed by Seattle Seahawk #95 Lawrence Jackson.  This glove is truly special because it is pink to celebrate the NFL's involvement in Breast Cancer Awareness month. Retail Value $Priceless! Reserve Amount $30
