One week to go!

New bids put us over $2,100! At $3K, I am thinking of adding some woodies, TD props, and some OLD D&D modules. A few people have reached out to add more items - additions are always welcome! I'll be adding some of those this Friday.

Also - I want to add a rap put together by our Vanilla Ice bidder. As much as I hate the earworm of that song, the rap our TD community version of Vanilla Ice is pretty cool.

Yo VIP, let's kick it!

Alright stop, drop bids and listen
Charity's back with a brand-new mission
Fred's got the mic and we're here to play
For Mary's Hands, let's give all day

Growin' that food, got the fields all plowin'
Seeds in the ground, crops keep growin'
To affordable homes, we're drivin' straight
Deliver that love, make no mistake

Mercado-style, set up the spot
Pick what you need, take all we got
We grow what they say they can't afford
So bid with me now, let's break that board

CHORUS:
Bid, bid baby (to the top!)
Bid, bid baby (never stop!)
Bid, bid baby (give it all!)
Bid, bid baby (for the cause!)Yo VIP, let's kick it!

sabelle and Fred, they lead the crew
Hands in the dirt, they break right through
Named for a mom who gave her best
Volunteerin' hard, never took no rest

501c3, the real deal
Food for the folks with the love they feel
Join the bid, make the gavel pound
For Mary's Hands, let's spread it around

Bid, bid, baby!

Fred, I do recall missing out on a couple of trades because I had to leave a GENCON early due to a cat emergency, that must be when we missed connecting. Small typo on the wooden tokens listing, I believe it should be 2003.

Lots of bids coming in right now - I will update in the morning. Thank you!
