   Bidding specifics for certain categories Live Auction and Class Gift Items You will specify your highest acceptable bid for a live auction or Class Gift item. Absentee bids on Live Auction and Class Gift items will be presented incrementally by a proxy bidder in the standard "Live Auction" format. If you are interested in a live auction item, be sure to check out the great opportunity to get a live auction item for only $25 with our Poor Man's Auction. All other Silent Auction Categories You will specify a single bid for each silent auction item. If your bid is the highest absentee bid for that item, it will be recorded as single bid on the item bid sheet at the opening of bidding on auction night.

   In the event that another absentee bid is received that exceeds your bid on the same item, your bid will be dropped. You will not be contacted if you have been "out-bid" so please submit your highest bid! Only the highest absentee bid per item will be recorded auction night.
