Hello Chapter members, 

Reminding everyone once again, we are planning a silent auction to raise funds for scholarships and to support chapter members electing to attend conferences or EXPO.  Our ask is for members to reach out to their local connections, restaurants, event venues, stores, etc., to solicit items for the auction.  Items such as gift cards, vouchers, or other easily deliverable items are preferred.  We will be posting the auction items using an online platform and opening the bidding in early February.

Attached is an introductory letter that you could use to approach locations when soliciting.  Any and all who are able to assist with obtaining items for auction will be greatly appreciated.  If you have any questions, please reach out to either Linda Kempske at lkempske@ccbcmd.edu or Marie Wells at mswwells@gmail.com.
