Bottles for Tender National Show Fundraiser.
On Monday night the big reveal of the tenders received for the five donated bottles took place.
These bottles were generously donated by club member Stan Bee as a way to raise funds for the National Show in October (21st to 23rd – get in touch for more details!!). In the final analysis 3 of the 5 bottles were sold:
Bottle 1: P. Mathews Lamont, a $40 tender was accepted.
Bottle 2: Christmas Tree Salad Oil, no offer accepted.
Bottle 3: Charles Cole Torpedo, $75 tender accepted (note this bottle ended up with a little bruise after being handled at one of the shows!)
Bottle 4: Bayldon & Graham Torpedo, no offer accepted.
Bottle 5: Mathews & Howey early square collar Torpedo, $290 offer accepted.
So a great result for the club with $405 raised. The two unsold bottles will be used for future raffles. Watch this space!
