SILENT AUCTION & Dessert/Coffee

The Methodist Men’s Group is considering a silent auction and dessert/coffee for late September as a fundraiser for the church. We need a minimum of 20 (new or nearly new) items or services before the event can be scheduled. If you have an item, or service (lawn work, dinner, babysitting, petsitting, housecleaning, baking pies, etc.) to offer, please list here. Your offer will not be a commitment at this point; we need to know that there is sufficient interest.

Please contact Doug Reed through the church office to offer items for auction including: Item or service, Donor name, Suggested Value, and suggested opening bid.
