INSTRUCTIONS FOR DONATORS:

Unless Lynn Jenner or Rob Molloy have made other arrangements with you personally, all donators should bring their Silent Auction donations to the Stonegate front office and give it to Mrs. Duke or Mrs. Tegethoff. Donations that are ticket-sized or are certificates (for services or for tickets that will be provided later) should be placed in the "Silent Auction" folder that can be found underneath the teachers mailboxes in the front office. You can ask one of the staff if you can't find the folder.

If you are providing a service you should provide the Silent Auction with a certificate to that effect. The certificate is what we will be displaying on the table. Please feel free to provide business cards, extra information, pamphlets, and any additional hard copy information you would like. Remember this is also a good business opportunity for you. The more information you can provide, the better to generate new business for you!!

If you are unable to drop off the information/certificate/tickets for us before the Spring Fair, please call Rob Molloy at 301-989-1165 or Lynn Jenner at 301-438-3045 and we will be happy to pick up the donation from you. We need all donations in hand by Thursday, May 17th, 2007. We will present you with the tax deductible letter for your donation at the Spring Fair. If you are not at the fair, we will provide the letter to your child on the Monday after the fair to transport home. Please don't forget to fill out a Silent Auction donation form for each donation. You can download the donation form here.

And this is just TOUCHING on the surface of what this year's Silent Auction has to offer.

But what do these things have in common? The persons donating these items are THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX. Just because you don't have season tickets to the Redskins game doesn't mean you don't have something to donate. Think also about your neighbors, friends, relatives, people you do business with. Do they have something worthwhile to contribute to this worthy cause? THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX!!

Do you own a business? Could you donate something from your business or some service that your provide to the Stonegate PTA for the auction? Remember all donations are TAX DEDUCTIBLE! We will provide a letter to your for all your donations for your tax man next year.

Don't be left out of this EXCITING AUCTION. And remember, anything you donate is also GOOD BUSINESS FOR YOU! It's just another way of advertising what you do. Business begets more business. Let everyone know what it is you do and how you can continue to provide business to the Stonegate community.

Click HERE for a donation form. In turn we will happily send you a letter detailing what you donated and the retail value for tax purposes.
