Fundraising Committee

It’s time for our annual culinary silent auction!  The auction will take place on Wednesday, February 5th at our chapter meeting.  Please consider donating an item or two. The more items donated the better chance we have to raise money for the Old Dominion Chapter education and scholarships.  A few ideas for items that have been donated in the past are home baked items, store bought items, breads, wine, glasses, corkscrews, cookbooks, baskets that include an array of food and beverage. Remember to bring your cash, checkbooks and/or credit cards.

The silent auction form is attached.  If you know what you will be donating, you can fill the form out and email it back to [email protected].  Extra forms will be available to be filled out the day of the auction.
