Check Out The Silent Auction

This year we have some absolute TREASURES in the silent auction!  Stop by and take a look in the coffee shop.  There is something for everyone.  And remember ... there are only 286 shopping days left until Christmas!!
Art



As always, we have some fantastic pieces of art (not very well photographed - apologies for the cafeteria light reflection).



Textiles


We have some stunning textiles this year.  Again we have some beautiful quilts on offer from the James family, some gorgeous hand made Fair Trade artisan Ethiopian textiles, and some absolutely awesome cozy up-cycled mittens made by MS Art Teacher Jo Thies.


Food
Food items are always a huge hit!  We have many offerings ... check them out!


Several different Roddick cakes (if you have not had one you haven't lived!) are up for bidding.


The Swanson brunches are always hotly sought after and this year, Dale is also offering his famous Swedish cardamon bread!  This author can vouch for its goodness!  They are also offering a fun evening of dips and sips.


For the coffee lovers, we have some hand delivered delicious Ethiopian coffee bought by former staff member Sara Schmidt, who is visiting from Ethiopia this week.

There are pancake breakfasts on offer as well ... get in there and get a bid in!

A handmade silver Ethiopian Cross
There are other wonderful treasures to be had as well, including jewelry, bamboo bowls, and some great services.  Stop by, check it out and place a bid!

Bidding closes 21st of March at 3pm.
