Definitely something everyone needs to get involved in if they can. After the presentation at the herf on Saturday, I fully understand what this is about!

Thanks Dave, Brad, Joel and the others that work hard to get this going and into the families/kids that need this in Esteli. After visiting Esteli myself and seeing some of the homes and kids while driving around in the country, I'm a big believer in what OE is doing!
this is a great way to serve someone else and make a difference. I'm in again this year.

Just making sure this is seen Repost in here also............
How U can help
Well know that we have started OE 2015, Let the Games Begin
Keep an eye out for T Shirt Sales in the near future….
What U can do to support now is have a Auction.
How it All works
How it works for returnees and the newbe’s (a few changes in last year)
I will moderate all auction to keep them going and moving along.
U send me a PM telling me what U have to Auction (Should be cigar related)
I’ll give u instruction on how and what to do, (I may be posting the auctions for u , TBD)
I will set a date and start time for auction…
Auction run for 5 days. With a start and finish time..
(But we may have a few that only run 24 to 48 Hours)
Some auctions will go in lots of three all at one time (given the buyer a choice)
Normally a min of a 5er , (Box’s sell like crazy during the auctions)
All auction will open with a Min Bid, and Bid at $5.00 increments
All auction should go at least to MSP, if not the seller can ask to shut the auction down.
For more info please see http://www.botl.org/threads/auction-room-guidelines-revised-1-15-13.2752/
When the Auction is done ,
I will send out a congrats to the buyer…The Buyer will send a PM to the seller showing that a donation has been made in the auction amount and also the address of the buyer, MPI will confirm to me that a donation has been made and a PM to the seller will be sent saying it is ok to send goods to buyer, This all happens very fast and is easy Remember the buyer is responsible for making the Donation
Main thing to remember here is we are raising money for this great project, and offering sticks that some people may never have seen or smoked , But also remember Fiscal Responsibility
These auctions were allot of fun last year and we did raise lots of money, so if u have something U wanted to sale, make it a auction and help us blow our goal out of the water,
The 1st Auction will be set to start on Fri or Sat .....1st up will be King Kill 33…..
Have fun guys……Remember This is for the Kids and Families of Esteli Nicaragua…

I was way low on donations last year. After seeing Dave talk this Saturday that won't happen again..... Can we get all important info of Auctions, donations etc. into the very first post? (Dave and Brads info) post #29) It's going to become a long read and possibly be buried. Thanks to all who are helping!
Special thanks to Emmett over at Blind Man's Puff for helping us get the word out!
