Join us for our first ever SoUUper Bowl and UUCV MINI-AUCTION – FEBRUARY 25, 2024
Following worship, soup, salad, breads and desserts will be served in our Dining Hall….and Mac n cheese for the littles. Tickets will be available to purchase before and after service.
And…plan to participate in our mini-auction that will also take place in the Dining Hall. Events are great ways to fill your social calendar while also providing the opportunity to get to know other UUCVers. Just like the special silent auction items, all funds raised go to UUCV.
You’ll need to get a bidding number to participate, as it is our record-keeping system. (Just for this mini-auction it’s free.) With it, you’ll be able to add your name and number for any of the sign-ups (at fixed prices) and/or to enjoy bidding up the competitive silent auction items. If you can’t attend, ask someone to be your Bidding Buddy to snare a coveted space or bid up an item. (Do check out the new sign-up!)
No payments will be collected after the Auction. The lucky winners will be invoiced in March, with payment appreciated by check within 30 days of receipt. (Payment by credit will also be an option.)
