WOCF SILENT AUCTION UPDATE
The WOCF Silent Auction scheduled for Friday evening May 22 is shaping up to be a blockbuster! The USOPC Archives has helped us to acquire several older and significant items that are sure to attract high bidding, and are easy to take home.
Among the items already secured are:
|
Proxy Bidding: If you are NOT attending, and would like to bid on a silent auction item, you will need to have an attendee bid for you as a proxy bidder. They will need to pay for the item at the end of the auction, and they will need to ship the item to you. However, we DO encourage this sort of absentee proxy bidding in order to extend the reach of the auction beyond our attendees.
We look forward to an active auction and lots of happy winners!
WOCF VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
We’re putting together a great team of volunteers to help make the 2026 World Olympic Collectors’ Fair run smoothly—and we’d love to have you involved! Volunteering is a fun way to meet fellow collectors, get a behind-the-scenes look at the event, and contribute to the success of this international gathering. Whether you can spare an hour or help throughout the weekend, there’s a role for you.
Volunteer opportunities include:
|
If you’re interested in volunteering, please let us know your availability and preferred roles—we’ll match you with a position that fits your schedule. Your help will make a real difference in creating a memorable experience for all attendees! Please contact
Jim Goddard (jhgoddard1503@comcast.net)
if you can help out!
Promote Your Olympic Association
We still need the AICO Members to assemble a short (8-page) overview of their association and its involvement in bringing Olympic history to life through collecting. This is an easy way to acquaint other collectors from around the world with your activities — and perhaps gain some new members!
Each AICO member association is invited to reserve a half-frame (8 pages, A4 or standard letter size) to present and promote its society.
Associations wishing to participate should contact the project coordinator,
Mark Maestrone
(m.maestrone@gmail.com). The deadline to reserve display space is April 20, 2026.
