2. Preview live auction items and trip raffle to plan ahead.

Live Auction: Rock climb and party, relax and visit Mickey, enjoy a chef-prepared dinner with friends, satisfy your need for speed, travel and enjoy the great outdoors, pitch at Busch Stadium, golf at Pinehurst No. 2, meet your new best friend, sip fine wine in Napa. These items are out-of-this-world.

Trip Raffle: These three trips make spaceflight seem ordinary. Blast off on the adventure of your choosing to see "Hamilton" on Broadway in New York City, cook and eat at Le Cordon Bleu in Ottawa, Canada, or play and dine in New Orleans. Winner picks from one of three trips. Drawing to take place during the live auction. Must be present to win. Only 125 tickets will be sold.
1. Forward this information to friends and family so they can join the bidding.

At the top of this email, there's an orange "Forward to a Friend" button. Please use it and tell your friends that they can create an account to bid on silent auction items as well! If the highest bidder is not present at The Rocket Ball, pick-up or drop-off will be arranged the following week.
