On October 12, 2019, Kirkland Performance Center will host its Annual "Peace, Love & KPC" Gala and Auction, at the W Bellevue. More than 300 arts patrons, corporate officers, business owners, and community leaders will be treated to an unforgettable evening bidding on items donated by some of our region’s most well-loved businesses.
We are looking for volunteers, 21 and over, to help assist with various auction tasks. The event includes a silent auction, live auction, dinner and dancing. Here are the job opportunities. Please specify what job you prefer. Each volunteer will have 2 jobs throughout the evening:
- Data Entry/ File-(4) 2 people are needed to enter winning bids in Maestro Soft and 2 are needed to file receipts for winning bidders. Volunteers are needed throughout the evening.
- Receipt Runners(4) During the live auction, the receipts runners will be stationed in the data entry area and given receipts to bring to bidders that have done quick check when they checked in. Bidders that receive their receipts should be advised that they can go directly to item pick up with their receipts.
- Runners-(2) For the live auction, take bid sheets from the recorder after each bid closes, have the winning bidder sign the sheet and then turn it in to the computer area for entry.
- Silent Auction Raffle & Item Pick Up -(8) Overlook the silent auction raffle prior to closing and possibly sell additional tickets. After live auction has begun, closed silent items will be removed from the silent item tables and taken to Item Pick Up for organization and pack up. Take down and pack up display décor and promotional materials. Pack up and move items to Item Pick Up. At Item Pick Up, volunteers will help retrieve items for guests by bid number after checking to make sure they have paid. Also may be asked to deliver items by hand or cart to the bidder’s car.
- Spotters -(4) For the live auction, spot bidders for the auctioneer. Assist Live Auction Runners in finding the winning bidder. This job is for the outgoing volunteer.
- Recorders- (2) For the live auction, recorders will document bidder number and winning price in the auction log and prepare the bid sheets for the runners. The recorder will also keep a running tally of the live dollar amounts for the auctioneer’s needs. Recorders must be very detail-oriented.
- Dessert Dash / Models -(2) Will be asked to bring physical items up on stage and display. During the live, will pick up dessert dash bid sheets and tally totals.
