Dear Thornhill families,
Our annual Benefit Auction is coming up in March, and we’re putting together the committee that will make it happen. You don’t need to be a seasoned party planner to jump in. We have resources, past committee members’ tips, and a great Auction Chair, Bronwen Sterling, to guide the team. It’s a fun way to meet other families and help raise money for our school.
Most needed:
- Auction Co-Chair: partner with Bronwen to lead the committee
- Silent & Live Auction Items Coordinators: lead donation solicitations, keep track of the donated items, and organize the physical items. This is the heart of the auction, and it works well as a team of two or more.
- Event Planner & Night of Coordinator: be the point of contact for the venue and vendors and manage event logistics
- Database Coordinators: enter auction items and manage tickets and email communications
- Run of Show + A/V Coordinator: build the event timeline and program and manage the A/V
- Marketing/Communications Coordinator: create graphics and announcements for newsletters, social media, and flyers
Also looking for:
- Sponsorships Coordinator
- Volunteer Coordinator
- Games Coordinators
- Hosted Parties Coordinators
- Decor setup helpers on the day of the event
Teaming up with a friend is welcome, and many roles are a good fit for parents with busy schedules.
To sign up for a role, or to ask questions, email benefit@thornhillschool.org. Once the committee is in place, Bronwen will schedule a kickoff call so we can start planning.
Thank you for helping make this year’s auction a success!
