BalloonsSpend $20 and get a $25 gift certificate to one of Atlanta’s favorite restaurants. Bring cash and look for the student volunteers selling the balloons. They sell out quickly, so buy more than one and do it early.
Items and gift certificates are arranged on tables situated around the Hellenic Center. The tables are grouped by category (Home and Garden, Sports and Fitness, etc.) and, with the exception of Art Gallery, by catalog number. Silent Auction opens at 5:30pm and the various sections begin closing at 7:30 at 10 – 15 minute intervals until 8:15 pm. Pay close attention to the closing times posted in each section so that you can bid often.
