We are just over 2 weeks away from the Auction! I have gotten loads of stuff added to the auction list, which is super exciting. Yesterday I spent a good 4 hours (with 3 kids in the back of the van) picking up items. One that I was really excited about was the tasting and bottle of vodka from New Deal Distillery in SE Portland. They were so nice! The tasting room smelled amazing and they had a huge selection! In the fall they are having a Whiskey distilling class that I think Rob would love! This item is going to be a sure bet winner to whoever is the highest bidder!

The other amazing thing I was able to secure was a week in a condo just outside of Cancun, Mexico! My amazing friends Lauren and Sunil have donated their condo! And if you are really wanting a sneak peak here’s all the info!!! Here are a couple of the photos from the property management’s site. It’s beautiful! Thank you Lauren and Sunil! ❤

Another fantastic item that I have picked up are tickets to the Timbers game on Sunday, August 20th versus the New York Red Bulls! There will be 2 lots of 2 tickets each located in the KeyBank Club at Providence Park. Honestly, I am not a soccer fan, so I have no clue about these seats, but when I looked up the info…WOW! Let me copy a bit from the Timber’s website about these seats.

The KeyBank Club is the ideal place to socialize with your guests in the fresh Pacific Northwest air or enjoy fine dining a throw-in’s distance away from the pitch. The 5,500 square-foot KeyBank Club restaurant straddles the midfield line, providing the perfect vantage point for all of the game-breaking action of the Portland Timbers season.

Or how about this awesome feature…don’t get up, it’s coming to you…for FREE!

In-Seat Complimentary Food: Once the match begins, servers in blue shirts will be roaming through the KeyBank Club with complimentary trays of hot dogs, soft pretzels, potato chips, Red Rope, Cracker Jacks, soda and bottled water. They will be handing out all the free items throughout the first half. Fans are asked to stay in their seats to ensure everyone has and equal opportunity to receive this great benefit.

The value of this item is $250/pair! For more information on the KeyBank Club, Visit this link. Thank you, Snyder Roofing in Tigard for the donation and Devri for facilitating it!

That’s all for now! I am working on the bid sheets, picking up items and figuring out the food plans! Invite people and RSVP on the Facebook invite so we make sure we have enough tables, chairs, and food!

Thanks for your support!
