First off, thanks to everyone for their support of the OVGPG everyone who has donated their time and effort to the club. Special thanks to all of the seed donors, and Ken and John and bigpumpkins.com for hosting the auction.
Thank you to everyone who has come and supported our club through these auctions in the past. Without your support our organization would not be able to host two seminars, The Annual Summer Tour and Picnic, and provide informative newsletters and seed sale to all of its members while hosting one of the best weighoffs around. This year we will have a one-night auction, with 20 lots.

The lots will be auctioned in the order listed starting at
8:00 pm EST Saturday December 23 in the bigpumpkins.com
chat room

Bidding format ($5 or greater increments):
The format will be as follows:
Many lots are offered in multiples, as indicated. Each lot
with multiples will have the high bidder take the first lot
and have the option to take as many of the lower lots as they
choose. The second high bidder will then be responsible for
the next lot, and have the option of taking as many remaining
lots as they desire. The third high bidder will be responsible
for the purchase of the final lot if the two higher bidders
do not opt to take it.
In example
Lot one is sold to Brett Hester for $325
Brett takes one lot
the second highest bid was $320 by Joel Holland
Joel buys the second set, and opts to take the
remaining set as well
end result is that Brett pays $325 for a 582 and 822
Joel pays $640 for two each 582 and 822

if Joel hadn't taken both lots, the third high bid
of $150 by Jack LaRue would have given Jack a
purchase of a 582 and 822 for $150

Additional stipulations:
1) All checks must be mailed by Jan. 6th
(money orders are preferred).
2) Put the lots in the order you want them.
3) Proxy bids are welcome, and I will make it clear when I am placing bids in proxy, yet will not reveal the identity of those who I am bidding for if they wish to remain anonymous
4) The OVGPG will not guarantee the germination of seeds
shipped.
All sales are final.

Thanks again, and send me any questions that come up
