Auction Rules:

number to hold the bid. The amount of confirmed bids will be posted to the website, which will be updated daily. Only the highest bid for each lighthouse will be posted. In the case of identical bid, first in wins. For privacy sake, only your initials will be shown after the bid amount, so you can track your bid.

Auction details are being finalized, but the live auction will take place sometime between 7:00 and 8:30 p.m. on Thursday, September 18th. If you are unable to attend and want to continue bidding up to the last minute, we will have proxy voters available for you to place your bid via phone.

minimum advanced bid on all lighthouses is $500. Bids may
increase in $20 increments.On-line bidding will end at midnight on September 17, 2008. Highest bids on each lighthouse will become the opening bid at the auction. We will confirm with you by phone if you wish to continue in the bidding process.

We regret that not all of the lighthouses are available for auction. Some of the lighthouses were pre-sold to sponsors. Sponsors were given an option to buy their lighthouse in advance. Ten sponsors paid for their individual lighthouse. We are very appreciative of their support!
