How do I bid in the silent auction?
The first step is to register here and click on GET STARTED. When you register, you'll provide your contact details and credit card information to simplify the process come bidding time. Once the auction goes "live", you'll receive a text message to let you know you can begin bidding. You'll be notified if you've been outbid on an item, or if a new item becomes available. You can use your smartphone, tablet, laptop, or desktop to bid on auction items.
If I win an auction item, how do I collect it?
If the auction lot contains a tangible item, BOYC will contact you to arrange for pick up at our office in McMinnville. If the item is a gift certificate, it will be mailed to the winning bidder. If an item requires shipping, costs will be the responsibility of the winning bidder.
What should I wear for a Picnic?
As all events take place outdoors, we suggest being prepared with a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen. In addition, as temps drop as the sun sets, bringing a sweater or jacket is always a good idea. As your event may be in a vineyard or on lawn, we recommend footwear suited to uneven ground, gravel, and/or soil.
