Our Raffle
Our "Raffle Auction" is a very popular portion of the day's fun. All different kinds of items, from original art to "gift baskets" to restaurant coupons (and all sorts of things in between!) are put up for individual raffles. We've had more than 30 items to choose from in the past, and expect it to be just as varied and exciting this year! Keep an eye on the Prizes below, but expect to check out the display when you arrive - we don't always know what items will be up for these raffle prizes until the last minute
How It Works.
The raffles are open to anyone, player or not. Participants purchase raffles tickets and are able to use these for any specific raffle item that is of interest. You then "bid" on an item by placing one or more of your tickets in the container for that item (this is the auction part). This allows you to participate in only the raffles which you are interested in AND allows you to impact the odds in your favor. Many people check the popularity of an items and adjust their bids (how many tickets they put in) if they want to improve their odds. The raffle opens at check-in and all bids are due before the tournament begins. Winners will be announced at the end of the tournament.
Our Silent Auction
Select items will be offered for bid during the silent auction. Auction items will have minimum bid amounts with specified bid increments. The auction will open at check-in and will close before the tournament begins. Winners will be announced at the end of the tournament.
The Prizes!
There will be lots of great prizes for everyone who participates in this year's tournament. Many will be won during play, but there will be an opportunity to win many additional prizes during the raffles and silent auction. Everyone has a great chance of winning a fabulous prize (or two!) this year!
