WOODSTOCK - The upcoming Quarter Auction in Woodstock will be supporting the United Way.
The way a Quarter Auction works is participants pay an entrance fee and are given a paddle. They can then buy into 'auctions' with a select amount of quarters and then hold up their paddle. The paddle numbers are then drawn from a bowl, and the number drawn wins.
United Way Campaign Coordinator Amanda Kreiger says you can better your chances by buying more paddles. "If you have two paddles then you can bid twice. So then you hold your paddles in the air. So my paddle numbers are 42 and 43 and then they draw all the paddle numbers out of a bowl or bag. So if they draw 42 or 43 then you win that item."
Additional paddles cost $2.
Kreiger says this is a great girl's night out with vendors selling a variety of goods. "The vendors also have products there that you can purchase just normally. And a lot of them have raffles at their table so you win gift certificates to have shopping parties with them. There's 12 different vendors coming - there's Scentsy, and Epicure, and leggings, and Origami Owl."
Kreiger tells Heart FM the people who host the Quarter Auction choose a different cause to support at these events, and they are thrilled to be selected this time around. "So there will be four rounds of auctions, and one of those rounds all of the money will be donated to United Way as well as all the entry fee is donated to the charity of choice as well."
It's happening on Thursday February 4th at the Unifor Hall starting at 7 p.m. The entrance fee is $5.
