Each year it takes more than 500 man-hours and over $60,000 to put on Midwest Geobash!
We rely on the generous support of our sponsors, sales of event merchandise, and our silent auction to make ends meet. Attend a MWGB and you'll notice all the great activities planned, our zero dollar entry fee, enormous amounts of free giveaways, and low priced on-site camping. All these things are possible thanks to the support of you!
Again this year, MWGB will include a silent auction on Saturday in Spangler Arena with proceeds to go towards event expenses.
This is a fun and voluntary way for attendees to contribute to MWGB. Do you knit? Make quilts? Are you famous for cache containers? What about woodworking or other handcrafts? What about those extra geocoins and pathtags?
This is your chance to show off and help our great event in the process. We will be accepting donations until Saturday at noon, with preferred drop off on Friday evening. See event schedule for auction drop off time.
You can also post what you are donating in the Midwest Geobash Community Group (facebook) so everyone can see all the great stuff that will be available for auction.
Thank you very much to all who have already donated!

Check our schedule of events for auction hours. While the auction is in progress, stop by to browse the many items and place a bid on a bid sheet. Simply write in your name and a bid amount of at least $1 more than the previous bid and it'll put you in the running. Bids must be legible! If we are unable to read your name, we will default to the second highest winner. When the auction ends, all pens go down and bidding must cease. We'll gather all the bid sheets, compile the results, and post the winners. We will have a receipt ready for you to pay with at check out. We accept cash and credit/debit card payment. Sorry, no personal checks accepted.
**Items are donated and as such, we can make no guarantee to the quality, usability, or condition. All items are sold as is and all sales are final.**
