What is a Quarter Paddle auction?

Vendors will donate baskets/items to the Legion and you will bid on any baskets or items that you would like.

Baskets/items are valued from $25-$100. Every person will buy a Paddle for $5 and $3 for every additional Paddle.

If you're interested in bidding, you will give the worker .25, .50, .75 or $1 per paddle and then raise your paddle. The auctioneer will then pick a ball and if the number on the ball matches your paddle and you placed a bid, then you win!!
