2nd Fundraiser for Chrysalis - Silent Auction, Lephalale

On Saturday, 20 November 2010, I held my second fundraising event for the Chrysalis Foundation.  This time the event was held in the form of a Silent Auction, in Lephalale.

My guests had an excellent time and relaxed in the casual atmosphere of "Die Stoep" restaurant.  I introduced the Chrysalis Foundation, whereafter I explained the procedures for the evening.  Every guest was given a number in the form of a ticket, which they kept secret.  Every guest had to bring a valuable item, which was displayed with a bidding schedule where the bidder had to write their number and the relevant bid.  The bidding closed at 20:00 when the new owners of the items were announced.

Interesting items were up for auction, ranging from a bicycle to Duncan Taylor whiskey.  Needless to say, last mentioned items received the highest bids.

This was an exciting evening and the guests enjoyed the uniqueness of the theme.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to an amazing evening.
