We are excited to be hosting our final James L. Watson Glass Fishing Float Fundraiser. We will have a wide variety of floats for sale, ranging in price from $5 to over $5,000. Any additional floats that are not sold during the event will be made available for sale via our gift shop. Before the fundraiser begins, the viewing room will be open to the public. From 11AM – 1PM June 6th folks will be allowed into the room for Meet & Greet with other collectors, and to view the Watson floats. THE FUNDRAISER BEGINS AT 1PM on June 6th. After the viewing those interested in purchasing will draw a lottery ticket – visitors will be let into the room to purchase in small groups. Each person will be allowed to purchase 1 item. June 7th will start with a lottery, from 11AM – 2PM, with the same 1 item limit. After 2PM on June 7th all remaining floats will be available for purchase, without limit. |
