Finally, if you would like to participate in the auction the evening of Christmas Under the Clock, you can get a gift basket, wreath, tree, garland, or centerpiece ready by December 6. If you have a location where you can display the item before the auction, please do that to garner interest (and higher bids) in the item. Create a promotional insert with your company name, list of items (if basket), and two sentences to promote your business. The insert will be included with your auction item. You can then deliver your auction item to the Plain City Public Library, the Plain City Historical Society, or Yoder’s True Value Hardware by Friday, December 6.

You can also have your item picked up between 8 am and 1 pm on December 6 by calling Chris Long, 873-4912, ext. 23 to make arrangements.

The donated items will be auctioned off beginning right after the tree lighting ceremony at approximately 5:30 pm. All proceeds benefit UPCO to help them with Christmas Under the Clock costs each year.
