Yes, I am already working on this.
Some of you gave really good suggestions for things for next year.
I am already working on them.
I also came home and found a couple of 'beauties' that I wasn't expecting to find.... I was checking on something for Roger, as he had made an off hand comment about something he'd like. I went searching for it, and BAM! I found myself a wonderful thing!!
I'm pretty sure that you will all be blown away by it.
As for the coveted car cover..... I'm really glad that went over so well.....I am trying to top that for next year. :D
Again, if anyone has suggestions, please contact me, as I am more than willing to listen. This stuff is for all of you...so I want to get things you all would like to have. (Just keep in mind, I work with a budget ;) )
Thank you to everyone who donated things this year, I truly appreciate it!
We had some great prizes.... An Ipod Nano, a DVD player, Licence Plate Brackets, tools....... I was pleasantly surprised!
Also, I will be making sure to have MORE COOKIES for next year! If we don't use them for the auction, I will make sure we have trays of them for everyone to enjoy.
[price is right voice] A NEW CARR!!!! [/price is right voice]
LOL j/k
But honestly, no ideas here :)
HA!! If it were a new car...it would be .....MINE! :p
I knew someone would say it. LOL
Gas.
:)
Actually, Gas Cards would be a decent idea, if we knew where they could be used easily in the area.
Well... I know for a fact that there is a Shell (Amoco?) and a BP station in the area.
You should get them for $1,000 so somebody can have a full tank.
:D
You must have one of them 15 gallon tanks...
Uh yeah...I'lll get right on that :p
What about sometihng like a car care gift basket. wax, washing stuffs, tire polish......
That was our biggest door prize this year, actually.
Ric did a great job of putting it together, he had to use a laundry basket for it all..... Royce won it and I think he was very pleased with it.
Car care stuff is pretty much a given each year, I always manage to pick up things for it....this year I had 2 caddies, and a few cloths, sponges, squeegies, etc in them.
Hmm *
pictures royce in parking lot at 4:30 in the morning* "wax on wax off, IT MUST WAX MORE!!!!"
BAHAHAH!!!!
I don't know about that, but he was playing with his nuts a lot in the parking lot Saturday night! :o
Now, Karen, stop that!
...that could SO be misconstrued when taken out of context like that! ;)
I AM very pleased with the gift basket of car-care goodies, and am looking forward to working with it soon. It has been raining non-stop for the past couple of days to the point of threatening to flood my house! ...so I haven't had a chance to use anything I won yet. Weather's clearing up now so maybe this weekend.
LMAO! Now Royce, do you really think anyone would believe I mean it in any other way, than the actual meaning? :rollin: :kiss kiss: ;)
The car cover is working great. My cougar will be in the garage while I do engine work to her. For some reason something keeps dripping from my roof of our garage and it occassionally leaves spots of my cougar. Now with the cover it's keeping her nice and clean.
Thanks Karen :)
That is awesome Steve!! I am so glad it is useful to you and that you like it. I know there were a lot of people hoping for it..... we'll have to see what happens next year. ;)
Great prizes this year! Can't wait till next year!
Thanks Sam!!
Maybe next year I'll win some car stuff b/c I am most likely driving next year.
Let's hope next year I don't go on a crazy adventure and I"ll actually make it to the Auction!
Haha right.. you're not allowed to go on any adventures next year unless ...I can go too;) ?!
That's fine with me.. It was a very lonely drive anyway.. nobody to talk to.. very long and boring.
Haha poor Alex! Next time I'll come.
Alright, sounds good!
As for the chinese auction. I'm gonna scrounge around in my garage to see if there are any parts i bought for these cars over the years that I don't think i'll be using anymore.
Debbie wanted that basket of car care stuff Ric made really bad. She is not as car crazy as I am, but she really loves a clean car, and enjoys keeping them that way.
Beers of the Nation? I had purchased beer from a local microbrewery and was planning on donating it for the auction [21 & over entries only].
Since we had to change our plans, I couldn't let it go to waste...:D
How about a wheel lock kit?
Alot of us are startin to get some new shoes that Im sure we would like to see stayin on there until you take them off by choice. After my ride got left on bricks I found a 20 lug lock kit with one key for all 20 locks on the mn-12's. I dont know if there is anything like that for the Fox body...Just an idea...
I missed the last cat jam:( but what about a nice in dash radio? I got a guy that work's at Mickey Shorr (a car audio place) I can get stuff from him at $3 over cost. Includes radio's, speakers, amp's, and alarm's.
Auction off baXo.
Can we start the bidding now?
i wish i could go to catjam... :(
I'm gonna try to talk to the owner of Livernois motorsports and see if she will donate like a gift certificate. I'll let her know that all proceed's go to the animal shelter or where else did we donate too?
Tod's Children's Hospital
aaahhh ok I couldn't think of it!!! Thank you
Hey Karen,
I have a SC hospitality basket with BBQ sauces & other goodies and also a BBQ condiments set to donate if you're interested. Thought it would be something different? I'll attach pix so you can see.
NICE!
Sure, if you'd like to donate it, it would be appreciated!
Thanks!
Yeah, that's way cool...tank you very mooch!
no problem, i was planning on it
