In addition to the silent auction, here are some other events at the annual conference hosted by the Education and Research Fund.

• Silent Auction - For the first time ever, the Education and Research Fund will utilize a mobile bidding system for the silent auction. All bids will be placed online via smartphone, tablet, computer, or other web-enabled device. All individuals wishing to place bids during the silent auction will need to register on this website prior to placing their first bid. Click "Register to Bid" at the top of this page. 
  
  
• Rochambeaux - The classic rock-paper-scissors game will become an all conference, single elimination tournament during the final general session on Wednesday, March 23. A $10 donation will purchase your entry to the tournament. Can you outlast the hundreds of other conference attendees trying to cut your paper, cover your rock, or smash your scissors? The last standing participant will win a fantastic prize!
  
  
• Annual Fund Drive - Make a donation to the general fund that supports the development of new programs and initiatives. Your contributions to the Annual Fund give the most flexibility to the Education and Research Fund to create new awards and funding opportunities in an ever-changing environment. Gifts to the Annual Fund help create a culture of giving in the Association and support Education and Research Fund programs and services.
