Attendees purchase an envelope of numbered paper squares. The squares are used to bid on low-priced items that are passed along the tables on trays. To bid on an item, place a numbered square in a cup on the tray and the cost of the item in the other cup. When the tray reaches the end of the tables, a number is drawn. The player whose number is called wins the item.

The group will offer many items for bid, as well as a raffle. Food will be available for purchase.

Proceeds will go toward the youth group’s trip to the youth gathering in New Orleans this year.
