How it Works
Bidder Numbers
You are given a bidder number on a card at the registration desk as
you enter. All sales and donations will be recorded by that number wine, raffle, t-shirt, silent & live auction items, and donations. If you
or your guest would like an additional bidder number, just ask at
the registration desk.
Silent Bids & Guaranteed Purchase
To bid on items in any of the silent auctions, write your bid number
opposite the dollar amount of your choice on the bid sheet. You
may skip lines if you wish. In order to guarantee your purchase,
enter your bid number in the “Guaranteed Purchase” box. Only
one number can be written in this box, and that bidder owns the
item instantly.
Dinner and Live Auction
The Live Auction will begin and dinner will be served at about 8:00
and the live will continue until all items have been auctioned. To
make a bid during the live, hold up your bid card. The highest bid
number acknowledged by the auctioneer will be the purchaser.
Dessert Dash
On each dinner table is a card for bidding on one of the delectable
desserts on display. Guests at each table write their bid numbers
and bid amounts on the card, and the cards are collected and bids
tallied for each table. When the auctioneer calls out the table
numbers, from the highest bid total down, a runner from the table
called races to the display tables to choose a favorite dessert. Bid
high to be sure to get your favorite!
Flurries
During either of the two Flurries, hold up your bid card for any item
as the auctioneer announces it. Whoever’s bid card he calls out
wins the item for the “Raise-the-paddle price” as printed in the
catalog. Note that most raise-the-paddle prices include a small
donation above the stated value.
Express Pay - Highly recommended!
Avoid standing in line to pay for your purchases at the end of the
evening by registering for Express Pay at the front desk on auction
night. If you have registered for Express Pay by submitting a credit
card number, you can just pick up your purchases from their original
locations and go. A complete purchase statement and charge
receipt will be mailed thereafter with any certificates that you have
won. If you do not make any purchases, no charges will be made
and your card information will be disposed of safely.
Check Out
Coyote Central accepts Visa or MasterCard, personal checks and
cash. [Checks or cash save Coyote credit card fees and ensure that
100% of your donation supports Coyote kids!] If you have not
registered for Express Pay, head to the checkout tables any time
after 9:00 p.m. and a list of the purchases made with your bid
number will be tallied for payment.
Taking What You’ve Won
Once you have paid for your purchases (or if you have registered
for Express Pay), you may pick up each item you’ve won from its
original location. If you need assistance in packaging your items,
there is a wrapping station near the ballroom exit. Any items that
cannot be taken the night of the auction can be picked up at
Coyote’s offices by arrangement.
Sales Tax & Deductibility
No sales tax will be charged for purchases made during this
fundraising event. Coyote Central is a registered 501(c)3 charitable
organization. If your purchase price for an item exceeds its fair
market value as stated in the catalogue or on the silent bid slip, the
overage may be deductible as a charitable contribution. Please
consult with your tax advisor for details. A tax receipt for any direct
donation will be mailed to you in the week following the event.

Jim Watkins 5-Course Feast
Value: $1,500
Value: $1,200
Andrew Will Winery founder Chris Camarda invites 8 guests
to a private tour of his acclaimed Vashon Island winery.
Camarda was one of the first winemakers in the state to
explore the specific flavor characteristics of key vineyards.
He did this methodically, by eliminating all variables other
than the vineyard site, and now he has chosen to perfect
his own custom blends of those varietals.
To maintain the peaceful Vashon setting, the winery is
closed to the public, so your private tour with Chris will be
a rare opportunity to hear and see the secrets of a master
vintner. Then he will invite you into his home for a lunch
where you’ll discover how wine and food can harmonize in
complex ways.

New York City. In 1961 he began making limited edition
prints of his work – the only one of the original abstract
expressionists to enthusiastically embrace printmaking. A
lifelong passion for symbolist poetry was the inspiration
for this suite of prints named after Mexican poet-diplomat
Octavio Paz.

Jacqueline Barnett
Assemblage of monoprints; ink on paper; 24 x 43.5
Jacqueline Barnett was born in New York City, went to
Vassar College, and studied art at Stanford University with
Nathan Oliviera and Frank Lobdell. Moving to Seattle in
1986, she became part of the original Foster White Gallery
and distinguished herself by having shows in
Seattle, California and New York. She was part of the
Francine Seders Gallery of distinguished artists for many
years, and her work is collected both locally and
internationally.
Her work is known for its vibrant integration of gesture,
nature, and sensuality with formal spatial demarcations. In
this work one can see the abundance of multi-touching
parts of life within the confines of night, structure of the
darker sides. This type of duality is part of her process of
exploring the dynamic complexity of nature.
