Silent auction items can include destination trips, vendor packages, hotel stays, entrances to attractions or local festivals, experiences, luxury and local goods and of course city swag.

“Please support the Destinations International Foundation’s efforts by donating destination experiences, supplier packages, or anything else our members may find exciting and useful for our Silent Auction this year,” said Ellie Westman Chin, President & CEO of Destination Madison and Chair of the Destinations International Foundation. “The funds raised will support the critical initiatives of the Foundation that provide essential resources and tools to every member!”
