This campaign is active through the end of our convention on March 22, 2025. Our goal is $15,000. While our membership numbers have decreased somewhat over the years, prices continue to rise.  In order to keep the contest affordable for all, we are seeking sponsorships. Please visit our Sponsorship Campaign page and share our Sponsorship Letter with your family, friends and businesses that you frequent. If each member of Region 10 brings in just $100, we can exceed our goal, twice over! Thank you, in advance, for your participation in this campaign.

Looking to support our convention while getting something special for yourself or a loved one? Our Silent Auction is LIVE NOW! This year, bidding for the Silent Auction is taking place online. This is an exciting change that will allow convention-goers to continue shopping from the hotel AND the competition venue, around the clock! From wine baskets to invaluable coaching sessions, there is something for everyone. We have the Board Room set up at the hotel where items can be viewed (and door prizes for those who shop in person!), but this online upgrade ensures that our new dual-location convention won’t prevent anyone from participating in the bidding. Non-members and out-of-towners can bid on the items too! Anyone bidding long-distance will simply need to make sure they have a friend on-site who will collect their item(s) for them on time, Saturday night between 9-10pm.

Bid on Auction Items now!

Bidding will remain OPEN until Saturday 3/22 at 9PM

Looking to donate to the Silent Auction? We have a Google form that collects all the information needed from donors, and also explains how to submit photos of your items. Please review our Silent Auction Donation Guide, and complete the Silent Auction Donor Submission Form by March 14, 2025.
