ClickBid is a new system for Springfield Black Tie, but after much review and deliberation, we will be introducing this to you.  It is a web-browser based interface that any phone or tablet can connect with.  No need for an app, just a web-browser.  Instructions on how to use this system will be detailed over the next few months.

Our plan is to open up the Silent Auction the week of the banquet.  You’ll be able to bid all week long, culminating at midnight of the banquet.

If you prefer, you will be able to leave with items you’ve won that night.  For online bidders not at the event, pick will be the following Sunday from 12PM to 2PM

During the banquet for all the year past, we’ve always done a “pass the hat” moment for cash donations people wish to make.  This allows people to donate that might not win Silent Auction items but still want to contribute.

Will have a fund-raising tally showing online and in-person the amounts donated, also conducted through ClickBid.
