LLEF Annual Auction
AUCTION Frequently Asked Questions
After a three-year hiatus, the LLEF Auction is back! We’re ready to rock this year and raise money for our school community. For those who might be joining us for the first time or if you just need a little refresher…
Here’s what you need to know:
Tickets - The auction is being held on May 20th, 2023, from 5:00 - 10:00 PM at Las Lomitas. Tickets will be available online and invitations will be mailed home in the early part of next year.
Golden Raffle Ticket - Already have your auction ticket, but feeling Lucky? Buy a Golden Raffle Ticket for your chance to win one of 3 extraordinary auction items valued at over $3,000K! Each ticket is only $100, and we cap the number of raffle
tickets at 300. The winner will be announced during the live auction, and the winner does not need to be present to win.
The Online Auction - Opens on April 27 and closes on May 3rd - The online auction kicks things off and if you can’t make it live to the auction, this is a great way to support the school. Many donations from the community will be available in the online auction. There are some amazing items this year so don’t miss out and enjoy some friendly competition through our online bidding platform “Bidding for Good,” which tracks bids and notifies you if you are outbid.
The Live Auction – May 7th, 2022 - Las Lomitas Elementary School
Dress Code - This year’s theme is School of Rock. If you are joining us live, we encourage you to rock out with us in your best Rock n’ Roll attire. Dressing up is optional but it does add to the fun!
The Silent Auction - As the party kicks off, we will have tables set up with silent auction items for viewing and bidding. This is your chance to catch up with friends, sip a cocktail and bid on an awesome catalog of items before moving on to the main event. Bidding will close before the Live Auction.
The Live Auction - The live auction is where our big ticket and “priceless” items are auctioned off live, in front of the dinner
crowd by an auctioneer. The starting bids are set by the auction team and go up by set amounts.
The Party - The party will kick off around 5:00pm with cocktails amidst on-theme decor and special surprises. After
cocktails, we will sit down for dinner and the live auction. After the live auction, dancing begins!
COVID Protocols - We are monitoring the situation and planning extensively to ensure that this is a COVID-safe event. We will follow all protocols set forth by the school district’s Pandemic Recovery Planning Committee. The event will be held
outside in the Lunch Pavilion on the Las Lomitas campus. Given that the event will take place on campus, we ask that only those fully vaccinated guests purchase tickets.
Payment and Logistics
Invoices will be emailed within a few days of the auction and will include all winning bids and items purchased. Payments are charged to your credit card on file. Items can be picked up after the party or will be delivered to you the following week.
If you have any other questions or want to provide a donation, please reach out to auction@llef.org. Thank you for your support and we hope to see you at the School of Rock!
