The University District Food Bank Presents Its Annual Benefit Auction Saturday, Oct. 15, 2016 St. Demetrios Hall

www.udistrictfoodbank.org Welcome Friends of the University District Food Bank! Thank you so very much for joining us for the 21st annual “Take a Bite Out of Hunger” Benefit Auction! I’m honored and proud to welcome you on behalf of our board of directors, staff and, most importantly, our customers. This event continues to serve as the primary generator of funding for our daily operations. So please give generously this evening. We are also very grateful for the underwriting and support of this event from our sponsors. Without them we would not be able to make this evening possible. Please help us thank our sponsors by supporting their businesses. This year has been an amazing one for the University District Food Bank. July 11 marked the first day of operations in our beautiful new facility, located near the corner of 50th and Roosevelt Ave NE. We are very excited about the opportunities this new facility will bring to the community. It’s bigger and it’s better! Thank you to all of you who made it possible through the success of the multi-year Capital Campaign. You may already be aware of the impact of the University District Food Bank, but I can’t emphasize enough how vital the lifeline is that University District Food Bank provides to those in our community in need. By year- end, the food bank will provide over 2.3 million pounds of food to over 5,200 families. Distribution of this food is done via several wonderful services. We offer a grocery-store model for customers with the walk-in food bank during business hours, home delivery to those unable to reach the food bank, and weekend back packs filled with food supplies for local students on free or reduced lunch programs. In fact, we have expanded the “Packs for Kids” program to now serve eleven schools in our service area. Thanks to your help and donations, the University District Food Bank remains a steadfast pillar of support in Seattle. That community support comes to us through food donations, money and volunteer time. Every month, our volunteers contribute more than 1,900 hours of service helping to stock our shelves, pack and unpack donations, assist families in making nutritious selections, and offer a kind word to everyone who comes through our door. Our local grocery stores, community food drives and farmers at the University District Farmers Market contribute food each week to keep our shelves stocked. We receive financial support from local government, church- es, schools, businesses, foundations and you. We are all in this together, working to keep all our neighbors nourished. Even in our new and beautiful space, we need continuous support. Maintaining our facility and expanding our services will require more funding. I would be remiss if I didn’t thank Development Director Paul Yunker, Board Vice President Paula Rhyne, Board Member Brooke Anderson and the Auction Committee for their hard work preparing for tonight. Lastly, thank YOU – our guests – for helping to make tonight’s event a success. Enjoy your evening, laugh, eat, drink, share and give! Give big! Sean S. Sessions Board President

Auction Rules Silent Auction At registration you will receive a bid number. No valid bids are possible without this number. You must use only your own number. The Silent Auc- tion begins at 5:30 p.m. when doors open. All items have an adjacent bid number space opposite the desired bid amount. Each new bid must equal or exceed the required increment as shown on the bid sheet. If an entry is not legible, the next legible entry will be used. If you want to secure the purchase of an item, write your bid number in the box labeled “Guaranteed Purchase” and it’s yours. Once a Guaranteed Bid has been entered, bidding on that item is finished. Portions of the Silent Auction will close at three separate times during the evening. The closing times will be announced. The bidding on that section ceases when the closing is announced. The closing bid, circled by an auction official, constitutes the winning bid. In the event of a dispute, the Auction Coordinator shall act as the final authority.

University District Food Bank Auction 2016 | 5 Live Auction Bidding will commence when the Auctioneer begins at approximately 7:30 p.m. To enter a bid, signal either the auctioneer or one of the spotters located around the room by raising your bid number. Use only the bid number assigned to you. Please hold your bid number so the Auctioneer can easily see it. The Auctioneer will acknowledge successful bidders at the conclusion of each Live Item. Acceptance of this acknowledgement constitutes a legal contract to buy. You will then sign an acknowledgement which will be brought to your table. In the event of a dispute between bidders, the Auctioneer shall have the sole and final discretion to determine the winning bid or to re-offer the item in dispute. Dessert Dash The Dessert Dash is a group activity. At each table there are Dessert Dash bid sheets. When the auctioneer gives the signal, table guests will have an opportunity to place their bids individually. The Dessert bid sheets will be collected and tabulated by the assigned table captain for each table. The table captain then writes the total of all his/her individual table bid sheets on the front of the envelope. A runner will collect each table’s envelope and order them from the highest to lowest. The Auctioneer will announce the order and a person from each table will be able to “dash” and choose their dessert. In case of ties, the first one to the table wins. Best of Live Raffle Rules 1.

Pet Portrait by Local Artist Buzz McCollough The artist will paint a portrait of your pet (dog or cat) on a 10x14” paint board in an acrylic color medium. The artist will sketch the pet in pencil and then send a photo of the pencil sketch to the client for their approval before color painting begins. Matting and framing of the painting is the responsibility of the client unless otherwise agreed upon. The artist retains the right to accept a suitable photo of the subject to be painted. Photos of the subject should be close up, front view, preferably of the head and shoulders, taken with natural light if possible (a flash tends to wash out natural eye and coat color). Examples can be viewed in the portfolio of completed works by the artist. The artist agrees to complete the painting within one month (30 days), once a satisfactory photo has been agreed upon. Offer expires six months after auction – April 15, 2017. Value: $250 Thank you, Buzz McCollough
