Auction Activities

There will be many ways to engage in this year's auction. Here are some events to look forward to:

Silent auction: Items listed below are a sample of what will be auctioned off.

  • Something to Flip Over (Spokane Gymnastics)

  • Brews to You (5 growler fill gift cards to local breweries in the Spokane Valley)

  • Sew Beautiful (2 quilts - two separate silent auction items)

  • Tea Time (Els Taste and Tea)

  • Picture This (Family Photo Session)

  • MUCH MUCH MORE

Heads/tails: $10 for each bling ring. Participants can purchase as many bling rings as they desire.

The more bling rings you purchase the more chances you have to win the game! Winner will receive 2 tickets to a Gonzaga Men's Basketball game in the 2025-2026 season (date to be agreed upon by winner and donor).

Rules of the game: 

  • Participants stand and choose "heads" or "tails" by placing their hands on their head or behind their back

  • The auctioneer flips a coin

  • Those who chose the same side as the coin toss remain standing, while the others sit down. (If you purchased additional bling rings, you may continue standing until all chances have been lost).

  • The auctioneer repeats the process, asking participants to choose again

  • The process continues until there is only one person standing, who wins the prize.

Wine Toss: $15 for unlimited tosses

Participants will toss rings at the necks of wine bottles. You will have unlimited chances to win the wine bottle you aim for. Participants will go home with a bottle of wine ranging in price from $15-$50.
