Adkins PTA Auction for a Cause - 2023

Adkins Elementary PTA is a 501(c)(3) organization supporting Adkins Elementary School, located in Lantana, Texas. Our school is celebrating it’s 10-year anniversary and are excited about the improvements we will be able to make using the funds from the auction.

This year, our PTA goals include:
• Updating the sound & lighting in the cafeteria for theater productions
• Flooring and drainage for the gaga ball pit
• Support student with field trips
• After school programs
• Continue the scholarship program

The goal for our 2023 Auction for a Cause is to raise $25,000 – of which we will donate up to $2,500 to another school in need. Working with our school administration, we will select a school that is truly in need of library books, PE equipment, musical instruments, or other needs that would enhance their students’ learning experience. If a need is not identified, the donation may be used to fund the Dorothy P. Adkins Memorial Scholarship through the Denton Public School Foundation.

The auction culminates with our Casino Night on October 20 at Circle R Ranch. Tickets are available at https://adkinselementarypta.org/product/2023-casino-night/
The online auction starts at 8:00 AM on October 9 and closes at 9:00 PM on October 20. Auction items will be on display at the Casino Night, and online bidding will continue throughout the event.

You do not have to attend the event to continue bidding or to win auction items.

****New this Year****
If you do not see anything you would like to bid on you can still help by making a direct donation to the school through the auction site. Just click the green button on the top that says donate.

This auction supports exact and proxy bids.

This auction has "extended bidding" enabled. The Extended Bidding feature automatically extends the end time of an item by 3 minutes when it receives a bid during the final 3 minutes. This allows bidders to relax during the end of an auction knowing they'll have time to enter a new bid if they're outbid in the final 3 minutes, making it easier to maintain their lead on one or more items.

The online auction starts at 8:00 AM on October 9 and closes at 9:00 PM on October 20. Auction items will be on display at the Casino Night, and online bidding will continue throughout the event.
