The Auction is BACK! Oh yeah!!
The new MVA board has decided to reignite the annual auction after a 2 years hiatus. However, we need your help!!! That’s right – instead of all the work falling on one or two super volunteers we want to spread the work out to the teams of Marymoor. We would like to call out the teams that have 5+ racers to volunteer at least 1 person to be a part of the auction committee. Great potential candidates would be people that like to plan parties, have lots of business and community contacts, are organized and have a few extra hours to help your favorite non-profit!
Understand that this auction cannot and will not happen if we don’t achieve a certain amount of participation from the community. We know that our track cycling community believes strongly in the value of track cycling. Now we need our actions to back those values and for us to come together in a big way in order to make this happen.
The goal is to have the auction as a kick-off event for the season to raise funds and therefore reduce racer costs (membership and race fees).
In previous years we have raised $20,000+ for both general and scholarship funds.
The auction consists of a silent and live auction with items ranging from roller parking spots, ski vacations, wine packages, bike frames, paintings and much, much more.
If you have any contacts or anything you would like to donate, we would gladly appreciate your help in the committee or just as a one-time volunteer. Please email back to amara@velodrome.org if you want to contact us about the auction.
