The SCHS Education Foundation raises money for our students, classrooms, teachers, and for the benefit of our future Raptors. One of the ways they do this is by having a yearly online silent auction.  There is NO FEE to browse or bid on almost 200 LOCAL businesses that are offering Gift Cards to NUMEROUS restaurants, Gift Cards to businesses, product such as Otterbox, IPL or Microneedling, Hot Air Balloon Rides for 1, 2, or 4 people, Teeth Whitening, Fitness, Automobile Care, etc. The bidding usually starts at 40% of the fair market value. You can get some GREAT DEALS and help out students as well!   You can do all this from the convenience of your homes or personal device.   The online silent auction starts on Feb 6thfor bidding, but you can preview now.  More items are being added daily. Go to www.32auctions.com/scef2016  to start your bidding or browsing.  If you decide you’d like to bid on a item, it’s as easy as clicking on the item & the website sends you an email letting you know if you are the leading bidder and when/if someone outbids you.  If someone outbids you, the site will then ask you if you’d like to rebid.  It’s as easy as that and so much FUN!!!   When the auction ends at noon on Feb 27th, you will be sent an email from the auction site on which items you have been awarded.  You may pay at this site with credit card, pay pal, or when you pick up your items on March 2nd with cash or check.  If you would also like to attend a Mardi Gras Party on February 20th at the Best Western Event Center in Longmont (near the House of Q), please see the flier attached for more details or go to  www.SchsEdFoundation.org   The whole evening is about Fun, Food, Live Music, and amazing silent and live auction items to bid on.
