I heard you're doing mobile bidding for the silent auction. Will you also have the sheets where I write my bids?
No, all bidding will be done using your smart phone. Don't worry though; you won't need a special app. When the auction opens, you'll receive a text to the mobile phone number you listed in your registration. You'll click a link in that text and the bidding fun begins! If you'd like to see how the process will work, use the menu on the left to visit the How Does Online Bidding Work page.
Why are you using mobile bidding?
Mobile bidding can occur at any location within the event, whether you are in line for the bar, mingling with friends, or even before you arrive at the event. You do not have to be at the auction tables to make a bid which we hope will help make the evening more social for you.
Does mobile bidding work with any device?
