What is Quartermania?
Quartermania is part raffle, part auction, and part fundraiser. When you arrive, you will be given a numbered paddle and a corresponding numbered chip. If you would like to purchase additional paddles to increase your chance of winning, they will be available for $5 each.
The items up for "auction" will be on display before the auction starts and you can decide which items you're interested in.Once the auction begins, the announcer holds up the first item and announces whether the item is a 1, 2, 3, or 4 quarter bid. If you're interested in that item, put the announced number of quarters in the bucket on your table for EACH paddle you bid. So if you want to bid two paddles for a 2 quarter item, you put $ .50 per paddle in the bucket and raise both paddles. If you have two paddles and decide to only bid one, you only pay $ .50 BUT you MUST choose only one numbered paddle to raise.
The announcer will then draw a number to find a winner. If they draw your number and you bid on the item, hooray! You just won an awesome item at a great price! If they draw your number and you did NOT bid, just call out "no bid!" and they'll continue to draw numbers until they find a winner.
Auction vendors will also have items to sell, so if you didn't win an item you bid for, you might be able to purchase a similar item at the vendor table.
Be sure to bring quarters, but if you forget or run out, there will be rolls of quarters available for purchase at the event.
Don't worry, all of this will be explained again at the event.We anticipate having around XX items to auction.
Raffle tickets will be available for purchase for opportunity baskets.
