Last Call for Auction Items

Saklan’s Auction Committee is looking to acquire a few more irresistible auction items for our upcoming event! Here are a few specific things we are looking for, both to raise money and raise excitement in the room:

  • Wine – Support this year’s Wine Raffle by donating a few bottles of your favorite Cab or Chardonnay.
  • Vacation Homes – Do you have or know someone with a vacation property, timeshare or other access to destination properties? 
  • Unique Experiences – Do you have a connection to something unavailable to the general public? Think Club 33, behind the Scenes tours, throwing out the first pitch, dinner with someone famous, or an opportunity to sit in an owner’s box.
  • Event Tickets – Do you have season passes for the Giants, A’s, Warriors, theatre, symphony, or live music venues?
  • Adventure Experiences – Hot Air Ballooning, Horseback Riding, and Cooking Classes are always popular items.
  • Gift Cards – Your unused gift cards can enhance a basket of themed goods.

Please let us know if you have any other ideas for amazing auction items. As our mission says, think creatively! Click here to complete the online donor form, or email ewilliamson@saklan.org to share your ideas with the committee!
