Our 7th Annual Wags to Witches Fur Ball Bash is just around the corner (Sat. Oct. 19 is the big date… save the date!), and a big part of this fundraiser is the SILENT AUCTION, which typically brings in about one-quarter of the net proceeds! Last year many of you were able to provide items that were very helpful to this effort… so, if you are looking for a way to help out, clean out your clutter, and get a tax deduction in the process… read on! Do you have new items in your closet waiting for a “re-gift” opportunity? Do you or an employer have a business you would like to promote? Do you have tickets to a game, concert or event that you are unable to attend? Do you have a talent that you would like to share or advertise (i.e. painting, sketching, carpentry, sewing, making jewelry, making pet treats, etc.)? Do you have way too much wine in the liquor cabinet? Do you have collectibles that are too much trouble to sell online? Do you have a gift card in your wallet for a venue that you really don’t care for? Do you like to bargain shop and/or put together themed baskets? If so, please consider donating item(s) or service(s) for use in this year’s Wags to Witches silent auction! Here are a few ideas: · Tickets or passes for weekend getaways, amusement parks, local & nearby attractions like the Nashville Zoo, Roxy, movie theaters, Nashville Symphony, etc.) · Sporting Events Tickets or Memorabilia (i.e. Titans, Predators, APSU, UT, UK, etc.) · Antiques or other collectibles · Gift cards for Nashville restaurants (i.e. Cheesecake Factory, Tony Romas, Macaroni Grill, TGI Fridays, Carrabas, etc.) · Valuable Jewelry Donations in excellent condition (handmade, antique, etc.) · Electronics (new in box only), i.e. TVs, IPODS, portable DVD player, digital cameras, laptops, etc. or gift cards to place where these things can be purchased. · Home Goods (i.e. vacuums, shampooers, microwave, convection/toaster oven, margarita maker, etc.) · Art Galleries (photos, paintings, framed art, sculptures, etc.) · Health/Body/Spa/Massage – gift certificates or baskets · Items appropriate for themed gift basket (i.e. golfing, scrapbooking, dogs, cats, horses, Titans, Predators, romantic, spa, food, etc.) or make up a basket/theme of your own! · Pet Items: Pet Beds, Kong-brand Toys (Large, Medium, Small), Frontline or other flea products · Gift Cards or Gift Certificates (any amount welcomed and for any venue… restaurants, pet stores, department stores, groomers, fast food, etc. We can use anything!)
