How does the silent auction work?
There are paper bid sheets next to each item. Bid sheets are clearly marked in bid increments with the guaranteed bid amount in the bottom right corner.
To place a bid, write your bid number in the box next to the bid amount. If you mark the "guaranteed" bid box, the item is sold to you; no one else can bid on it. Otherwise, it is sold to the highest bidder.

Is my auction purchase tax-deductible?
Auction packages won above the fair market value are tax-deductible in the amount of the difference. For federal income tax purposes you may be able to deduct the portion of your purchase price that exceeds the item's fair market value (FMV), if you paid the excess with the intent to make a charitable contribution.
For any additional questions, please consult your tax advisor.
