"I just want to
say that Old Sturbridge Village in Sturbridge, MA just held
its 2nd Annual Gala and Auction on Saturday last Saturday.
What a success! I used just about every technique I learned
at Kathy Kingston's "Auction Success in a Down Economy"
seminar. Everything was so well received...and the Fund-a-Need,
which most people had never heard of, raised over $12,000
in 10 minutes! Huge success. Our final tally matched and
exceed last year's amount. Who would have thought that in
this economy that could happen.
I really owe it to you.
What I learned in that seminar was well received by the
museum's executive staff, the committee, and by the attendees.
THANK YOU!"

to share and implement what I have learned."

all day training that leaves no questions unanswered...
she is one of the best auction trainers in the country and
has the credentials to back it up. The value of the information

the costs of sending a couple of people to the training."
