Items needed for auction @ convention

Every year the OUCH auction brings in money to help OUCH and every year people have donated many many items. Wisconsin cheese, shineys, mosaic ball, art work, etc.
I will personally be contacting....(uh NO, I believe begging would be a better word) a lot of people to contribute to this years auction. As I get people to agree, I will post it here. The auction is also one of the many 'fun' events at the convention.
If you have something you'd like to donate, Please post it here, so we can start making a list of the donated items. If you cannot attend the convention it can be a way for you to be a part of this annual event.
Please Pm me for the address of where to send it, or if you want to bring it with you to Dallas that is fine too.
Linda

Jonny has agreed to contribute another 'shiny' I think 2 yrs. ago Racer took the bid on his other one. It is really beautiful.

I've seen your house Cathi and it's priceless. I'll see what I can do to auction it off. 
I know you can't send any of your delicious baked goodies you always provide, but thank you for whatever you send. Check your PM's for the address of where to send it.
Linda

No, but you can contact her about purchasing one. She is donating one to OUCH, but her other ones are for sale:

Cathi Pierce just informed me that she will be donating a very special "supporters" basket that she's putting together.
I'd like to add here that.. even if you don't know exactly what you might donate for the auction, posting that you will bring or send something here, will give me at least an idea of what we'll be working with.

Hi Linda thought I would post a picture of 1 of the many things I can and will donate to the convention sorry to say but I wont be able to attend it again BUT I have made everyone of the meet & greets here in my home town of DavCon Ü
ok here it is cost me $1.00 at local hobby shop a 1/24th scale 1966 Chevelle SS396 and I made the (3) OUCH decals and put 1 on each door and 1 on the trunk lid. It will come in a clear plastic case to keep the dust off and is great for showing it off. Enjoy this and all the other things I will be sending to the address I was given. I will ship it by the end of next week. Terry (the builder)
P.S. My best friend Dave also will be adding to the cause.

 Virginians?
I'm not certain, but I don't think THEY should attend!
I'm completely against any Virginians being at conv!

As if I'd ever part with you silly arse!
Now I WAS thinking of auctioning "Push an ex over Niagara" rights... heh, heh, heh they'd be moving Fort Knox to Dallas to accomodate the OUCH loot 
Seriously though, I'm lost for ideas so any suggestions would be welcome!

Tanya,
It doesn't have to be homemade/handmade! Shoot, the Wisconsinites usually donate cheese every year and as far as I know, not many own a churn .

Tanya be sure and check with the TSA website as to what you can and can't bring, you don't want anything confiscating and also, they're allowed to take a lot less booze into the US than we can here.
