Your giYs to the CCCS Fund are for the direct use of students and faculty to help them achieve their academic and extracurricular goals.
The Annual Fund is the cornerstone of our financial development program.
Around 15% of our annual budget is derived from financial dona:ons, contribu:ons, endowment income, and fundraising events such as the annual auc:on, which supplement tui:on and sustain the educa:onal excellence we know and expect at CCCS.
Our fundraising goal for the 2013-­‐14 school year is $100,000. Tonight’s auc:on is a major event in reaching that goal.
All proceeds from this evening (with the excep:on of the paddle call), go toward the CCCS Annual Fund.

an amazing camp for kids K-7th grade for 34 years. Instead of a rigid structure, they give their campers choice. Instead of
teaching kids the typical way, they give them tools and gentle guidance to help them become autodidacts, people who
teach themselves. The difference is subtle and profound. Must be redeemed for Summer 2014 by 5/31/14.

Auction Rules
Registration
Upon entering the auction, you will receive your bid number. Use only the bid number assigned to you for bidding on silent
and live auction items.
Silent Auction
The Silent Auction opens at 4:30PM. The minimum bid and minimum raise for each item is written on the bid sheet. To be
valid, bids must comply with these minimums and be legible. To place a bid, sign your name and bid number with your bid
amount on the bid sheet. Doing so constitutes a legal contract to purchase that silent auction item at the price you stated if
your bid is the winning bid. The last (highest) valid bid entered prior to the section closing will be the winning bid. .The
Auction Committee reserves the right to withdraw any item at any time without notice before the actual sale. In the event of
a dispute, the Auction Committee shall act as final authority in determining the winning bid.
Live Auction
Live Auction bidding will begin at 8:00 PM. When bidding, please hold up your bid number toward the auctioneer. The
Live Auction will continue until all items are sold. If a group is bidding on one item, please designate one person to place
your combined bid. Auction items will be awarded to one purchaser only. A bid acknowledged by the auctioneer is a legal
contract to purchase the item.
Payment
All items must be paid for by the end of the evening. We gladly accept cash, check and credit cards.
Pick-Up
Once you have paid for your winning items, you will be issued a receipt. Please present this receipt at the Pick-Up Tables to
claim your winning tangible items and/or certificates for services. It is the responsibility of the purchaser to locate and
remove his/her winning item(s) by the end of the auction.
Terms of Sale
Unless otherwise noted, all certificates for goods and services must be used within one year of the auction date. All items and
services are subject to the terms and conditions specified by the donors.
All sales are final. There will be no exchanges or refunds. CCCS does not make any expressed or implied warranties or
guarantees on auction items regarding quality or value of items or services. CCCS has attempted to describe and catalog all
items correctly, but all items are offered and sold "AS IS" and "WITH ALL FAULTS." CCCS neither warrants nor
represents, and in no event shall be responsible for the correctness of descriptions, genuineness, authorship, provenance or
condition of the items. No statement made in this catalog or made orally at the auction or elsewhere shall be deemed such a
warranty for tax purposes or market value. Items have not been appraised unless otherwise noted. Reservations for trips and
vacation accommodations must be mutually arranged with the donor unless otherwise noted. No refunds will be allowed on
travel packages for canceled tickets and/or accommodations. By the buyer's purchase, the buyer waives any claim for
liability against CCCS, its elected and appointed officials, members and employees, sponsors, volunteers connected with the
auction, and/or the donor of the item. Neither CCCS nor the donor is responsible for any personal injuries or damage that
may result from the use of the property or services.
Tax Information
This catalog either lists or you may ask for the fair market value of each item. Any amount you pay in excess of the fair
market value would normally be available to you as a charitable contribution for tax purposes. Please check with your tax
advisor for specifics.
