Silent Auction Time!

    It's that time of year again, Silent auction time. Every year at the Chinese New Year banquet we have a silent auction to raise awareness and support for our charities through the Silent river Benevolent Foundation. More info about the charities below. First, donations, we need you and your generosity. New items, hand made crafts, local business donations, but please no used items. Every penny goes directly to our charities.

   This year the auction will be in a online format only. This is to ensure everyone gets to enjoy the banquet equally. We will be sending out details on how to view/bid a few days before the banquet, it is actually really easy to view and bid on items so don't worry. 

   If you would like to donate, bring your items to be donated to the Kwoon with details as to what it is, what it is worth (value), who made it (artist/tradesperson if applicable), dimensions if needed, and who donated it. This info is crucial so when we post everything up for auction all the details are clear. If special arrangements need to be made to drop off donations, I can be reached on my cell phone during the day as well at 780-970-3590 (Don). 


2024 is a year of the Wood Dragon, starting from February 10th, 2024 (Chinese New Year) and ending on January 28th, 2025 (Chinese New Year's Eve). The Dragon symbolizes power, nobleness, honor, luck, and success in traditional Chinese culture. The Dragon is a supernatural being with no parallel for talent and excellence.

Lets bring in the year of the Dragon with a bang!!
