PENNY SOCIAL:
As in previous years, a Penny Social (raffle) will be held to benefit the BVMA. Bring your donations of period items or books, bottles of wine, or food gifts for the Penny Social.

POUND SOCIAL:
Last year for the first time we held a Pound Social (silent auction) to benefit the BVMA. Larger or costlier items donated brought in a considerable sum, helping to offset expenses for the BVMA. Bring in period items, books or garments. The silent auction will continue throughout the day, and the winning bidder will be announced during the dance. Rules for the Pound Social will be provided at the Meeting.
