WANTED: Items for POSSE Auction
The POSSE is seeking suitable items to put up for bid at our upcoming Benefit Auction, set for April 28, 2012.
The auction committee is specifically looking for quality products, gift certificates, memorabilia and services (see list of suggestions below). Another idea is to encourage your church, local organization or other group to come up with a theme basket that would appeal to many people.
Item donors will receive gift-in-kind credit toward annual POSSE benefits, including parking. Those interested in donating an auction item are asked to e-mail posse@okstate.edu or call 877-2B-POSSE for more information or to arrange for an item pick up.
