Vintage Mandolin Information

As mentioned in a previous blog post, Van is donating a mandolin to the Charity Auction. Here's some more information about the mandolin from Van, including a photo.

"Picked up this mandolin from School House Music. All it says inside is "1941" in hand written pencil.  Friends have guessed it's either a Kay, Kay-craft, Regal, or Harmony. I've been having a good time with it!"

Auction Items

Sometimes, rarely, we get questions about what to bring to donate to the Charity Auction. The answer is simple - bring things that you honestly think that someone else will want to buy. Some of the popular items from years past have been homemade infused liquors, other alcoholic beverages, quality artwork, musical items, functional household appliances, clothing, gift certificates to restaurants, etc. Please do not bring things that you would have otherwise thrown in the trash.

This year, we will also be having a silent auction. If you have any items that you feel are very special, post a comment to this blog entry and we will add it to the list of silent auction items.

Oh, and one more warning. Please do not sample food or alcohilic auction items before they are auctioned off.
