TRIVIA NIGHT & AUCTION FAQs


Key Information 


When and where is the Trivia Night & Auction?

Saturday, March 19, 7:00pm (6:25 for VIP reception) on Zoom.


Can I bid on items if I am not able to play trivia?

You need tickets for the VIP reception and for the trivia game.  However, you do not need a ticket to bid on auction items.  


We invite everyone to start bidding on a wide-range of amazing items, including our pre-auction items and party tickets. Although most items will be closing on Saturday evening during the Trivia Night, anyone can register and bid on our auction website, and you don't have to be present on Saturday night to win. Be sure to register ahead of time to receive updates on items. All auction proceeds support Deal, so bid early and often!

Please email Principal Neal for a ticket.
