How Do I Bid?
Once bidding has opened, visit the Silent Auction display area near registration. When you have selected an item to bid on, print your name and bid amount on the first available line on the bid sheet. Each subsequent valid bid must be incrementally higher than the previous bid (acceptable bid increments for each item are included on the list of prize packages and will be included in the on-site program). If a name or bid is scratched out, that bid is considered void.
Payment Procedure
Bids may be paid Saturday, April 9, at the ACR Evening Reception. Bids may also be paid Sunday, April 10, from 9:00 AM to NOON in the registration area. Bids must be paid in full before items will be released, and all payments must be received by noon, Sunday, April 10. The REF accepts MasterCard, VISA, American Express, cash or personal check as payment.
