Brine

It's too early to say for sure but I'd love to do the auctioneering stuff again. It is fun.

exv152, the only problems you will have is a possible lack of money and convincing the rest of your household that you really do need the stuff.

Im 99% willing to commit, given that I had to bail a week ahead of the auction last year, Im afraid to put my name down in stone...  but if youll accept a 99% sign up, im there to do easy stuff like the raffles or draws.  :)

Maybee if i knew what i was volunteering for, nothing in your posts says for what. it just says give back to the club and volunteer .... maybee a clearing of such info could initiate more members to participate

We need volunteers for greeters, auction runners, raffle ticket sales...all sorts of things. 

The more volunteers we have the smoother things run. ;D

Ok so how about a heading like " THE GREAT MARCH AUCTION NEEDS VOLUNTEERS" Cause no where does it say it is for the auction, i would have never guessed. especially for the newbies around. I realise im not that new here, but I didnt realise it was for the auction.

And still charlie, the highlighted text did not enlighten me on the subject of volunteering help you guys need assistance for. Im still clueless to it being about the auction. I expect the veterans to look forwards to the march auction like christmas :) hehe.

You guys have a salty section?

charlie

Fevial, thanks for that great catchy title.
The "details be forth coming as soon as possible"was to let everyone know that as soon as we have confirmation on everything it will be disclosed without delay.
The club always invite everyone regardless of what aspect of the hobby your interest is in, the last 4 Auction provisions & appeals were made to have vendors from the Marine aspect of the hobby & those provisions & appeals still continue.
Hope that helps
Looking forward to your support
Regards
