Ahoy Corinthians!
The Quarterdeck looks forward to seeing you at the spring potluck at the Maplewood Rock and Gem Club 8802 196th ST. SW Edmonds. The doors will open at 6 PM for a social hour and the buffet line will start at 7 PM. Members with last name starting with A-M, please bring a main dish, members N-Z please bring an appetizer or salad. The Club will provide place settings and dessert. Please bring your own beverages.
We are having a silent auction again. The items are displayed and signup sheets are attached with a minimum bid amount suggested. All the buyer has to do is sign his or her name and the amount of money bid. There is a time limit on the auction and the last and highest bid at closing of the bids takes the item home.
The success of the auction depends on what is contributed. This is where you come in. Every member is asked to contribute an item or items they think might be desirable to the other members and or guests. The items need not be nautical but I am sure you all have stuff in your garage, shop, or home that will go well at this event.
Items such as: clothing, wine, booze of any kind, baskets, toys, hobby projects, dishes, paintings, hand made objects, gift certificates to coffee shops, restaurants. Anything you treasure and/or wish to share and contribute. Items need also not be expensive but the more the value the more money the club can make.
We can collect any or all of the contributions till the time of the auction. You can also bring items to the dinner yourselves. We will need to know what you are bringing so we can prepare the necessary paperwork for the items' bid sheets. Email us at cyceofedmonds@gmail.com.
Visit your favorite shops and services and ask them to contribute gift certificates. Anything to do with boating will be especially welcomed.
Please think seriously about this event and dig into your treasures and be creative. We can have a great time and also make a pocket full of money for good old CYCE.
