It's time to gather goodies for the 7th annual Friends of the Shakers' Online & In-Person Auction Fundraiser! If you have items to donate, we are open to receiving them! The auction will take place at the August Friends' Weekend event & online for all to bid on.
What are we looking for? Well, be creative! Here are a few ideas...
-Gift cards/certificates, virtual or physical
-Shaker or Shaker-related item
-Individual items, themed baskets, or grouped items
-Handmade items (YES- we LOVE handmade! Let's show each other how talented we are) What do you make> WHat do you friends make that you want to support?
-Vacation/getaway/camp stay/experience
-Goods from Shaker Village’s online store - that means they feel the support twice! (select "Local pickup" so that shipping is not charged, include a note that it's for the auction & we will take it from there!) maineshakers.com/shop
-Support a small local business by purchasing from them and donating it to the auction
