2026 Auction - What to Donate

If you think you don’t have something valuable enough to raise a large bid, don’t worry. Nice items can be bundled with other items to make bid-able baskets. Examples: a bottle of good wine, a lovely holiday decoration for a Christmas basket, kids’ fun stuff for a grandparents’ basket, good lotions and potions for a spa basket, food items for an entertainment basket – you get the idea.

If you, or someone you know, has a retail store or restaurant, please consider donating an item or certificate from them.
