Guys n Gals.....our 4th annual St Judes Auction will be upon us soon, 1st week or so in June.
We are going to set a goal of $50,000 for the kids!!!
There's gonna be some really cool stuff donated again this year I have heard and heard.......and of course, they'll be some hunts offered up.
All the money raised goes to the St Judes's Childrens Hosptital to benefit sick kids.
Like I said, just a reminder its gonna be here before ya know it..........
I'm familiar with St. Judes (a good organization) but I do have a questions about the auction. What is the format of this auction? Will there be on-line bidding? Will it be a silent type bidding process? Or will ya have to show up somewhere to bid?
What do you do if you have something you made and want to donate it to be part of the auction?
I did make a little three arrow bow quiver that was so much fun to make I made two and would like to donate one of them if that is possible.
The forum from last years auction is still up to give you an idea of what goes on. The forum will be opened when it's time and you post items and whether you will pay shipping or need help with it. Then folks just post bids. It's a lot of fun and goes to a great cause.
Yeah...lets see if this will work......and show ya more posts.....
St Judes 2006 (http://tradgang.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=forum&f=91&DaysPrune=1000&submit=Go)
We'll put up the 2007 forum a week before so folks can start listing items...and well have the exact dates and times posted as well.
Well I finally won a bow at that WTA banquet last saturday night. Just a little light for me. It was the last one but not the least. It's a kids bow and really a niice one. I was just happy to win something. And now I have another goodie to donate. I do plan on skinning it also and I might have some arrows also that might work for it. BTW we all had a great time.<><

I can't wait! It was so much fun last year. JC and I couldn't wait to check every day to see what was put up and who was bidding on what.
Looking forward to the good natured ribbing and joshing that goes along with this as well....Bidding your buddy up just to make him pony up more money...... :clapper: The great relationships that grow from the hunts shared and special gifts made and mailed. What a blessing it is to be a part of something so wonderful...and the feeling all the while that we are making a difference for children who need all the help they can get.
Thank you to everyone who will search for the perfect item to donate or to pour their precious time into something hand made. Thank you for those who will bid heartily and with gusto.
I can't wait....when can we start????? We are ready!
:biglaugh:
How long does the auction last? I will be in Canada at that time bear hunting.
Thanks,
Craig Schoneberg
I can't wait. St Judes is a wonderful cause.
LOL - pennies may not win but every little bit helps and they can always be donated as cash after the bidding ends, if you don't win any bids. I'm gonna pull up the "Tique's mason Jar St. Judes Challenge thread also - as a reminder of the goin's on. Well, I thought I was going to pull it up but I can't seem to find it. I have the worst time with search's :confused: .
I did find it (finally - my qwn dumb mistakes).
Everyone know what they are bringing to the auction this year? Save your peenies and dig through your gear for a donation! Only 6 weeks until it's here!!!
I've wom 2 fabulous hunts in the past 2 years and got them for what I consider a bargain , can't wait to see if I can do it again , Fred

Just helping to keep threads up, about the upcoming auction (and then the threads of it, when it gets here), are also donations in their own way, you know folks. Don't hesitate to help however you can, and, "Thank-ee kindly."
I guess I better start Planning a special Quiver for the Auction....
I plan Quivers better when I take naps....I see some good napping coming up....
:bigsmyl: :wavey: This is gonna be fun...
It's getting closer....
