How Can YOU Support the Auction With a Donation?

Donations for the 2010 Community Auction are accepted until April 9th.  

Listed below are a few suggestions for donations (all items must be new unless an antique item).  Use our suggestions, use your imagination or use your expertise – a successful auction begins with exciting items!


WineDonation.jpgFirst Annual STA Auction Wine Frenzy!

This year, at the Gala dinner during the cocktail hour, we will be offering the first annual STA Wine Frenzy in which guests have the opportunity to join in the frenetic excitement, win a spectacular bottle of wine, and contribute to the cause. 

However, in order for our Frenzy to be successful, we need donations of wine.  Whether you have a bottle of Pinot Gris valued at $7.99, or a lovely 1998 Bordeaux valued at $100, we’re accepting ALL donations. We would like to accumulate at least 100 bottles to have in the game, so visit your cellar or the store, and please bring a bottle (or two!) to the Development office over the next few weeks and we’ll be sure to put it to good use.  

If you have questions about the Frenzy, or would like your wine to be picked up, please contact either Joanne Mullen at jbmullen@comcast.net, or Brian Reagan at brianjreagan@comcast.net, and we’ll be able to help you out.  Please include a donation form (available to download above) with your wine donation so we may provide you with a gift receipt.
