Michael Orwick 's comment on Your Attitude About Auctions

I have always approached it as a gamble. Win some lose some nearly always have a good time and they are a great opportunity to network. I do demand a minimum price and that they have some promotional materials of mine on hand.
I do on average 3 of these a year and most include a quick draw which I love doing and good food and wine which I also love.
So I go in with some what low expectations but always show up with a good attitude and planning to have fun.
