SILENT AUCTION ITEMS

Please consider assisting with procuring silent auction donations or providing a donation yourself. Any new items are appreciated. Popular items include: restaurant or merchandise gift cards, bottles of wine, sports event tickets and memorabilia. Don’t forget household items such as a waffle maker or air fryer. Tools are always a hit. Items may be dropped off at the parish office between the hours of 8:00am and 4:00pm Monday-Friday, given to an usher at any weekend Mass or we can arrange to have them picked up. Please email oktoberfest@southshorecatholic.org for questions on silent auction donations.
