The Godfather and his boys are back in town with the money for the 2008 Annual Chamber Auction and Cash, Bash, and Stash on June 5th!

The Godfather and his gang have gone to great links to secure the cash for the giveaway!  They have been working hard "convincing" sponsors to help out with some great items for the live and silent auction.

These guys have the means to be quite persuasive.  The Godfather and his "family" formally request your appearance at the function -- You do not want to cross the family, so get your ticket now!

How does beef tenderloin, shrimp arnoud, fried cheese cake and chocolate eclairs sound for dinner on June 5th?  Well, then how about $10,000 in cash give-away! 

If those things get your motor running, then get ready for the 17th annual Chamber Auction and CASH BASH AND STASH June 5th at the Bainbridge Country Club!  Only 200 tickets will be sold for the evening.  So get your ticket early!!

We have some very exciting live and silent auction items for the bidders!  Some of the live auction items include a Wild Game Dinner for 12, Trips to Beach, the Mountains, and Little St Simons Island.  Gas prices got you down, what about a scooter that gets 80 miles to the gallon?  Hunting trips for Quail at Brentwood and Dove at Southwind!  A deep sea fishing trip on the Lady J II for 10 people!  What about a beautiful dinner cruise on the lake aboard a 50 foot house boat? Beautiful jewelry, football tickets, Daytona race tickets, birthday parties and many, many  more items!  There is something for everyone!

Tickets are $100 each.  A ticket admits two people and gives one chance in the $10,000 cash give away!  We will draw out every ticket until the last one standing gets the grand prize of $5000!  5 other $1000 winners will be pulled at random intervals. 

As mentioned before, only 200 tickets will be sold this year.  Reserved Corporate tables are available.  A corporate table includes 8 tickets in the drawing and a table for 8.  Price for a reserved corporate table is $1000.

The annual auction is one of the largest fund raisers for your Chamber.  The success of the auction is vital to the budget and allowing the Chamber to continue the program of work that enhances the business climate and our community.  See you June 5th.  Doors open at 6 with the drawing and auction beginning at 7:30.

If you have any questions or need tickets, please call the Chamber at 246-4774.
