Selling Holiday Decorations Get involved with a flea market or holiday craft show set up a booth, selling poinsettias, bows, wreathes, etc. Add a little note about holiday safety, such as fire prevention, with each purchase. Try a silent auction where a bid sheet is posted next to the item and customers write their bids down, each one topping the one before. Larger items can be auctioned off with a lively round of bidding. Snacks such as popcorn and drinks are also sold during the show.
People are free to move around during the show to bid on items and purchase snacks.
As part of the talent show, slides and videos are shown of Red Cross activities so the public can see what the Red Cross does. It really helps kept the public in touch with what Red Cross is all about.
