Plant Auction
Greetings all.
I would suggest that we do have a split for those who want it, and a 100%
donation for those who wish to donate. You could have two types of seller
numbers based on whether they took a donation seller's form or a split
seller's form, or have a box on the top of the form which they would check.
(BTW, anyone who fails to check either box is assumed to make a 100% donation
to cut down on bookkeeping headaches).
Then the only forms the Auction chair would have to worry about getting
checks to would be those in the split file. And I would definitely suggest
that we pay by check, and not at the event itself. That can be a HUGE
headache for the treasurer, who would also be at the event to enjoy some of
it, not just to work.
I would also suggest contacting all of the major US and European
manufacturers to solicit donations of plant related equipment for a raffle or
auction.
Just a few ideas...Have a good Holiday!
Mike
