How to play:
Guests pay $5 at door and get 1 paddle
They can purchase additional paddles for $1
Guests should bring quarters to bid or quarters will be available to purchase at the door.
Say the guest has 3 paddles numbered 1, 2, and 3.
The announcer shows a cooler full of picnic items valued at $50 and says this is a 2 quarter bid.
The guest decides to only bid with paddles 1 and 2. They put 4 quarters in the bin on the table (2 quarters for each paddle). All the quarters are collected from the tables.
The announcer starts calling numbers from all the paddles that were purchased. The first number called is 3 which they did not bid so they say "No Bid". The next number called is paddle 1. The guest screams "That Is Me" and they win a $50 item for 4 quarters.
There will be 2 rounds of auction with a break in the middle.
The organization gets all the vendor table fees, food sales, entry fee, extra paddle sales, 50/50, any other raffle they do, and quarters for items donated to the org including one item from every vendor
