The range of items popular at these auctions include racing collectibles, vehicle parts, custom or handmade treasurers, t-shirts, team shirts, memorabilia items, anything autographed – in other words a little bit of everything and anything.  If you have something you no longer want, remember the old saying, “one man’s junk is another man’s treasure.”  Don’t throw it out.  Give it to DRAW for the auctions.

Please forward your auction items to "DRAW Auction – c/o Rosalee Noble, 4 Hance Drive, Charleston, IL  61920".  Mark your name on your contribution clearly on the inside and outside of the package so that the item can properly be credited to you.  You may go to DRAW’s web-site www.drawonline.org and from the article Donations Needed for 2009 Auctions download a form to include with your auction item. 

Items for the Joliet auction should be shipped to arrive no later then May 26, 2009.  Items may also be dropped off at the DRAW Booth located on the Manufacturers’ Midway , at any national event prior to this race, or at the actual auction site between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. on the day of the auction, June 6, 2009.  Any questions please contact Rosalee Noble – 217 345-6537 or e-mail rnoble@consolidated.net . 

If you do not have an item to donate for the auctions but would still like to help, DRAW also has available sponsorship opportunity for our annual Joliet auction.  Your individual donation would help cover the cost of the tent, tables and chairs.
