Guests can choose between prime rib and salmon as entrees; dance to music of the Hit Men; and bid on auction items ranging from vacation getaways to Jamaica, Montana, Lake Tahoe and Pajaro Dunes, to elegant ruby, pearl and sapphire jewelry.

Among the auction's donations are a weekend of labor from Woodside High's Athletic Director Packy Moss and football coaches Ralph Crame and Chuck Velschow; personal flying lessons; and the chance to join the announcer in the booth at a Giant's game.

Hundreds of other items donated by local restaurants, businesses and the Woodside High School community will go to the highest bidders. Guest auctioneer will be former San Francisco 49er Gary Plummer. Attire is casual.

No tickets will be sold at the door. To receive an invitation, or for more information, call WHS Foundation at 367-9750, ext. 8687.

Tickets are $75 per person, or $750 for a table of 10. Reservations must be received no later than Monday, April 8. No tickets are available at the door.
