spring SAM auction

[babblefish1960]

I usually have to ask someone as I never remember anything other than tax time, however, as we customarily travel en masse to Montreal to see what goodies we can bring home or give up over there, I thought it might be good to establish when the auction is, and what sort of traveling arrangements could be had for the SAM bound OVAS convoy?

Any reasonably intelligent facts would be welcome!

When is it, where is it, and if I can make it, I would have room for two other people.

Zapisto is supposed to tell us shortly when the auction is. Normally its at the end of May.

Babblefish the carpool sponsor thing will be on the agenda for the upcoming executive meeting.

It's at the same place and same time as usual!!   

Actually, here are the infos :

Sunday April 29th
Auction starts at noon.
Auction room should open at 10:00AM
Pre-registration is highly recommended at superencan @ aquasam.qc.ca
Pre-registration before Friday, April 27th at midnight at the above e-mail will give you 75% of the auctionned lot sale price, the SAM will get 25%
Registration after Friday April 27th will only give you 60% of the auctionned price.

Any lots registered on place after 11:30 on sunday will be automatically refused.

Zapisto will confirm the following informations shortly, as I'm not sure (wasn't able to attend the exec. meeting last month!)

People pre-registering their lots before monday the 23rd at midnight will receive a strip of raffle tickets.
All dry goods will be sold BEFORE livestock during the auction to try to speed up the auction!

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the info David.  The above point is very interesting,  and as the Auction guy for OVAS I will be very keen on seeing how this turns out.

Dave... there's this great little search button up top

That being said.. here's what the search digs up:

75 Square Sir-Georges-Étienne-Cartier

If you don't want to follow the Google map, there is always a carpool to the auction that gets organized

  sorry BigDaddy, in the future I will use my eyes before my fingers 

thanks for the heads up though.

Dave

also if need be I can take two people with myself and my wife.
