Boys & Girls Club charity auction

This weekend Nanci and I attended the Boys & Girls Club charity auction at Pechanga. Since Wim is a board member he had a table reserved with a couple of extra seats. There were tons of gift baskets and items such as autographed guitars to bid on at the silent auction, but nothing that really stood out. Although there was a mini "chopper" motorcycle that caught our eyes.


It wasn't quite our style. Now if it was a scooter, I definitely would have put in a bid.

Once we were seated at our table we enjoyed some good food and enjoyed entertainment by the kids. They were really good for how young they were (ages 10-17). Then they had the live auction portion of the auction, with a real auctioneer. "TwentyfivehundrendTwentyfivehundredDoIHaveAThree...S-O-L-D..BAM!" Quite entertaining.

Since the items being auctioned off were a bit more than my budget, we began folding napkins into various designs.




At one point our waiter came up and asked if we'd worked catering services before. Haha

At the close of the event my mom and Wim ended up walking out with about 6 or 7 different items and gave Nanci their Catalina island trip with 6 hours of golf cart rental as a thank you for house sitting last month. So you can look forward to a Catalina blog post in the future. ;)
