Locksmiths' Exhibition Award Dinner raffle and auction
At the Awards Dinner on the 5th of March we intend to hold a raffle and auction for a very special cause. The raffle prizes will be available to diners only at the meal but the auction items will be open to anyone to bid on.
This will be a sealed bid or silent auction in that:-
Sealed bids for the item of your dreams must be made on plain paper with your full details i.e. name, address, company name if it's a company bid and the maximum amount you wish to bid. Seal this in an envelope and the bid for item clearly written on the back- and send to Mick at the show office marked 'Auction' C/O Locksmiths Exhibition - 22 Mill Gdns, Elmswell, Suffolk, IP30 9DQ. Bids can also be handed in on the Saturday at the show, again in a plain envelope with Auction on the front and the bid for item name on the back.[TRIMTO}
These bids will not be opened until after dinner on the Saturday night. Winning bidders will be expected to pay in cash or cheque as soon as possible if not on the night - we will advise on the cheque details.
So far the Auction items are:
