We will be having a Technology Auction and Fund Raiser coming up on Saturday, September 21 at 3:00 PM eastern time, in the Town Square room.
Please feel free to let us know of any items you would like to donate. Perhaps, you have updated your adaptive technology and have a talking dictionary lying around collecting dust, or what about some software, keyboards, microphones, notetakers, cellphones, headphones, hard drives, mp3 players, digital recorders, and even computers, that you've meant to sell, but just haven't found a buyer? We've got the perfect solution for you! Donate your technology items, whether new or gently used, to us, so that we may auction them off and raise money for our site. All proceeds go toward our annual fees to maintain the site for your continued enjoyment and fellowship. Most of the donations tend to be accessible electronic items, however we are not going to limit it to just this. So if you have any homemade craft items, delectable desserts, or anything non electronic we would appreciate the donation of those items as well. We ask when you donate please let us know the physical condition as well as the working order of your donation. We also ask anyone who is donating to pay for the shipping of that particular item to the winner of that bid, if possible.
If you wish to donate an item to this fund raiser, please, contact us at: fallauction@out-of-sight.net.
Please include the name of your item, how old the item is, model number, a brief description, any problems with the item, and any other pertinent information about the item which would be beneficial for the new user to know. Click here for examples which were donated in the 2012 auction.
It's due to the generosity of members like yourself that we enjoy the activities, games and events here on Out of Sight.
Whether you donate or not to our auction, everyone is welcome for an afternoon of friendship and fun!

You Call the Tune, donated by the good musicians of Out-Of-Sight.net
Each year, we offer up for bid, many of our outstanding musical performers on Out-Of-Sight. As winner of the bid, you will have the choice to choose a song for your specific performer to sing. Perhaps, they love country music, but you want them to sing some rock and roll? Or, perhaps, a slow jazz song is your preference? What about having Lee Richards sing, "Another One Bites the Dust"? The possibilities are endless! Come on and bid for the following members and let's enjoy them performing your musical favorites! Special Note: If there is a song that the performer absolutely cannot perform, we ask that you work with them, and come up with an agreeable compromise. In addition, the performers have the right to respectively decline particular song titles that may be offensive to them as well. Thank you!

about Jeepneys:
Jeepneys are the most popular means of public transportation in the Philippines.
They are known for their crowded seating and flamboyant decorations, which have become
a ubiquitous symbol of Philippine culture and art. A Sarao jeepney was exhibited
at the Philippine pavilion at the 1964 New York World's Fair as a national image
for the Filipinos.
The word jeepney came from the combination of the words "jeep" and "jitney", a small
bus that carries passengers on a regular route with flexible schedule.
