The Valentines Market just received 2 wonderful donations. This allows us to hold a unique
Mid Winter Auction to benefit the Markham Stouffville Hospital Covid-19 Relief Fund.
The first item is a very spectacular framed Watercolour, Winter Birch, by our own resident
artist Philip Port, and donated by Phil.

- A great Valentine Gift for someone special!
- Would also look Great hanging in your home or cottage!
The second donation is a Beautiful and Bountiful Valentines Basket, assembled by Roseanne
Dumitru, with contributions from friends and The Old Curiosity Tea Shop. This colourful gift includes:

- Another way to treat yourself or use as an IDEAL Gift!
Everyone, except the administrator, John Dumitru, is invited to place a bid, starting today. This
Valentines Auction, which ends on February 5th at 8 P.M, will be a little different.
You can only bid once.
Your bid will be kept Confidential, and must include:
- Your name and identification of the item you want.
- A bid at least equal to the Minimum Bid. You may include up to 3 additional bids and authorize the Adjudicator to consider them only if your first bid is not successful.
Bids must be submitted to standrewsmarkets@bell.net, or to Roseanne at 905-294-2386, before the Auction closes.
To ensure transparency, you are advised that Roseanne has already submitted a bid and it cannot be changed. At the close of the Auction, Peter Ma will adjudicate all bids and declare the winners. Please do not submit your bid to Peter.
It is our hope that you can support this unique addition to our Valentines Market to benefit the Markham Stouffville Hospital Covid-19 Relief Fund.
Sincerely, the ladies of the Valentine Market Partnership.
