Holiday Banquet Silent Auction - CALL FOR DONATIONS!

The silent auction is a popular part of the Raynham Banquet and a huge source for raising funds for extra projects that benefit our riders which would otherwise not be possible. Our past fundraising has allowed us to upgrade the footing in both areas to a soft, dust-free sand/fibre mix, develop the cross-country schooling field, install mirrors in the small arena, offset the cost of our lovely stadium jumps, and more! 

At last year’s banquet, we were able to raise a significant portion of the funds needed to install an indoor wash stall in the tack-up area with hot and cold running water. This would also include a new insulated boarder tack room, which would house the hot water tank. This will be a huge benefit for all horses and riders as it will provide a space for cooling out, bathing and first aid treatments year-round. Our goal for this year’s banquet is to raise the additional funds needed to move forward with the project over the winter. 

We are currently working on collecting items for the silent auction. Your help in providing donations is greatly appreciated. Popular donation items include:

• Equestrian-related products and services 
• Unique items and themed gift baskets
• Tickets for sporting or cultural events
• Restaurant gift certificates
• Kids’ Items are always fun for our younger riders to bid on

If you know of a local business that would be willing to donate a product or service, please email me at maryd@skyridge.net and I can send you a fundraising letter. Donations can be dropped off at the Raynham office. If you could fill out the form provided on the table with the item description, value, and the name of the donor. We ask that all donations be provided by Monday, December 1.
