[QUOTE="JulienSam, post: 124706, member: 4575"] Shari -- My son's preschool does a silent auction where each classroom put together a themed basket of goodies -- outdoor sports, board games, family cooking, etc. They're always very popular. My daughter's school does something similar with a raffle -- but instead of things, they offer special experiences with- teachers. For example, the art teacher offered an after school ceramics session for a student & a friend... the principal offered a special breakfast with her... I don't know where you live, but if you have a local sports team, theater, etc., they are usually up for donating items. Popular items included packages that feature event tickets, dinner & an overnight hotel stay; or a family dinner with free bowling/other activity afterward. Trips are popular, but tough to do. Again, depending upon where you live, you might have a larger city near you -- many hotels will donate a room, and you could contact event venues to see what they might offer (i.e. a theater, zoo, etc.). Sounds like if you could put together one or two "packages", you would have met the donation requirement.... Good luck! Julie :happy2: [/QUOTE]
