Hi everyone!
We’ve been discussing our upcoming end-of-year and kickoff meeting for the 2026 season, and with rising costs, we’re looking at hosting an online silent auction to help offset expenses.
End-of-year buckles increased by over $30 per buckle this year, and while they’ve already been ordered, we’d love to cover that cost and hopefully get a head start on this season’s expenses.
We’re reaching out to you to see if anyone would be willing to donate an item or reach out to local contacts about possible donations. 100% of funds raised will first go toward the buckle expenses, with any additional funds going into the general fund for the upcoming season.
We will be accepting silent auction donations until the end of day on Monday February 16th. Please message our page if you can donate an item or would like to donate funds. We will need a good photo of the Item, a short description, and you to bring the item to the Meeting/Banquet on Feb 27th. We plan to start the auction for the public on our page next week and allow Winners to pick up their won items at the Meeting/Banquet on Feb 27th or the buyer can pay shipping and LCSC will ship the item.
Attached is a letter you may print and give anyone/any business who you may ask for donations from.
Thank you all so much, and we hope you’re having a great winter—staying warm and dry! ❄️
