The Trotting 4 Charity auction is underway. You can find the full schedule and jerseys that are available at trotting4charity.com.
Forty-nine jerseys will be auctioned off over the next few weeks. You can place your bid at anytime by commenting in the thread featuring that jersey. Don’t worry, you can bid on as many jerseys as you’d like. Once you bid, please make sure you that you subscribe to each thread to receive email updates if someone ups your bid (you don’t want to miss out).
We kick off the auction with Yannick Gingras, Jason Bartlett, and Andy Miller. These jerseys end on Wednesday (May 23).
All jerseys end at 9 p.m. (EDT) on the designated day. After 9 p.m., you have five minutes after the previous bid to secure a bid. If five minutes passes and there is no higher bid, I will comment and officially close the auction for that jersey. All bids are publicly time-stamped.
Please watch the video for information, rules, and help navigating the website.
For any help or questions, please email Ryan Macedonio at ryan@trotcast.com.
