October is Auction Month!!!

Auction Website


We are still in need of volunteers! Please make sure to check out the VOLUNTEERING page on the website to see a list of openings, as well as the link to sign up genius. Sign up genius is the program we use for volunteers to sign up for our volunteering opportunities.

Donations!!!  Donations are being logged and the catalog will be available online soon! Printed version will be available closer to the auction date. Please bring your donations into the school (donation form and receipt available in the office) or contact the committee for a local pick up.

Social Media! The auction committee is utilizing the Facebook page “Lincoln K-8 School,” and the Twitter handle @LincolnK8PPT. We have posted auction items and donation ideas in both. Please check them out for updates! The auction itself is an EVENT Facebook page this year, please make sure you’re looking at the correct page and not the outdated page.

Are you creative? We need help with making new signage and new Live auction displays. If this is something you are interested in, please reach out to the auction team LincolnSchoolAuction@gmail.com

  • Leave donations in the school office - Be sure to leave a donation form with your donation and grab a donation receipt if needed for tax purposes.

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
We are needing volunteers to lead auction stations and have lots of other time slots open (for both Friday evening set-up and auction day). Volunteering does not mean you will miss the fun!
