LIHS Auction In Photos

Wow, is it July 15th already. I often call myself The Great Procrastinator and my having neglected to post photos from the LIHS annual auction, that took place on June 9th, just goes to show you that the name fits me. Oh well, anyway, here are some photos from the event.
 


There were a good number of items up for bids...



 
 

Everything from feeder mice complete with breeding bin...



  

...to mice eating snakes like this Ball Python, to...

 


...snake and lizard enclosures...



 

...tee-shirts, artwork, lighting, more tanks...

...to books, herp light bulbs, a microscope
(no ladies John H was not up for bid) ...

 

 

...to bird cages (great for outside time for Bearded Dragons)...

  

...and even feeder roaches with which
this young lady seems engrossed.

 

 

The auctioneer, Vin R going through the motions...

 


...and here getting some help from his faithful assistant.



 

You may not think it to look at the bidders
but there were a few bidding wars...

  

...and maybe even a very savvy bidder or two checking the Internet
to see the value of an item before making another bid ;>).

We raised over $1,500 for the LIHS. Thanks to everyone who participated, in any way, in this year's auction including the board members who set it up, other volunteers who helped set it up or run it, anyone who donated items to be auctioned off, anyone who placed a bid (especially those who had the winning bids). Without you folks there would be no LIHS. 

If any other LIHS members have photos from the auction, or from any other LIHS event, or even of your personal herp collection, that you would like to see on the blog - please send them to me in an email.

All the best,
Glenn B
