Everyone will seek in-kind donations from targeted businesses.  Individuals will send what businesses they intend to approach to Matthew as well as what items were provided to us upon receipt.

Bob and Sara will survey event location to see if the space is feasible for a silent auction.  We will make more informed decisions on the silent auction as we get closer to event and we can gauge how many large ticket items we were able to accumulate for the silent auction.

Matt will also develop promotional material for the event including name and event blurb to be sent out and approved by committee.  Matt will provide finished product to Corey for printing.

Send name, phone and/or email to Corey for record keeping. If someone is purchasing a large number of tickets, take down main point of contact and tickets can be picked up at our will call station at the registration table.
