South Valley’s Biggest Party of the Year Is Coming!
Mark your calendars for November 14, 2026
Our annual auction is just around the corner, and we’re getting ready for one of the most fun nights of the year at South Valley.
This year’s theme is Wrong Event, Right Cause, so start planning your most delightfully misplaced outfit. Were you expecting the Met Gala? A tailgate? Comic-Con? A wedding? A space mission? Whatever imaginary event you thought you were attending… dress for it! The more creative, the better.
Before we get to the costumes, we need your help filling the auction with fabulous things to bid on!
What can you donate? We love a good auction item, and there are so many ways to participate. Think about your talents, interests, resources, and favorite ways to have fun!
Share a skill or talent. Could you offer card-making, home repairs, landscaping, party planning, home design, crafting, a handy-person service, a cooking class, or something completely unexpected?
Share an adventure. How about a hike, fishing trip, cabin retreat, picnic, biking tour, or camping adventure?
Host a gathering. These are some of our most popular auction offerings! Consider an ice cream social, movie night, international dinner, brunch, game night, kids’ party, or another gathering you’d love to share with our community.
Donate something wonderful. Artwork, jewelry, handmade treasures, books, movies, gift baskets, or other items someone else might be excited to take home are all welcome.
Parties are especially popular! We really like getting together, and parties and social gatherings have consistently been among our most popular auction items and biggest fundraisers for South Valley.
So, if you’ve ever thought, “I should have people over and do something fun…” this is your moment! Turn that great idea into an auction offering and invite your South Valley community along for the fun.
Online donations are back! Auction donations will once again be submitted online, and our auction website will be ready to accept your fabulous offerings soon. Keep an eye out for the link!
Have an idea but aren’t sure how to make it work? We’d love to help!
Go get creative. The auction needs your talents, your treasures, and your willingness to throw a really fun party!
With appreciation and anticipation,
Your Auction Item Team
Jodie Wright & Marilyn Smith
