Safari Unlimited has generously donated an 8 day/7 night trip (Saturday to Saturday) for two people to stay at Cotton Tree Lodge in Belize. Meals, lodging (double occupancy), tours, tour guides, non-alcoholic beverages, and local beer and rum are included. Step into the world of the Maya and explore untouched rivers and jungles for a once in a lifetime experience. Tour the rainforest and awaken your senses to the sounds of exotic birds and wildlife. Rope swing from trees along the Moho River, paddle upstream in a wooden dugout canoe, kayak in the jungle, or maybe visit the many Mayan ruins in the area. Take a 30 foot jump from a waterfall in the morning and make your own chocolate bars in the afternoon. Visit the small town of Punta Gorda on market day and see the vast array of local fruits, vegetables and fish. The lodge is totally off grid, using mainly solar power. They raise fresh crops, harvest local wild fruits, and even tend their own flocks of chicken and goats. Your cabanas are nested 16 feet above the ground and perched along the slow moving Moho River. After you have enjoyed an evening gourmet meal prepared by our chef fall asleep to the sounds of the howler monkeys and the sound of the jungle. Arrival and departure point is Punta Gorda, Belize. You may add fishing for $375 per boat per day (up to 4 anglers per boat). Not included are airfare, ground transportation from Punta Gorda ($100 per person round trip), tips and any expenses before or after your stay at the lodge. Book your trip for available dates in 2019 or 2020. We thank chapter member Russell Kelly for facilitating this donation.

Safari Club International, Orange County Chapter Terms and Conditions 2019:
Auction and Raffle Program Rules & Regulations
Safari Club International, Orange County Chapter (“OC SCI”) is a Section 501(c)(3), non-profit organization. Our members are conservationists who hunt. Our mission is conservation of wildlife and natural resources. OC SCI appreciates the support of its donors and members in helping to further its programs and goals. Auction revenue funds a significant portion of OC SCI's operating budget. The term “auction” refers to the silent auction, the live auction and the raffle conducted on March 9, 2019 for the benefit of OC SCI.
Amounts paid to OC SCI as part of the auction usually do not qualify as charitable deductions. If an auction item (not a raffle item) is sold for the benefit of OC SCI, the purchaser may be eligible for a charitable deduction for only that portion of the payment that is over the item’s fair market (or retail) value (raffle ticket purchases are not eligible for a charitable deduction). Refer to IRS Publication 1391, Deductibility of Payments Made to Charities Conducting Fund Raising Events and consult your tax advisor for information about charitable deductions.
These Auction and Raffle Program Rules and Regulations apply to auctions and raffles conducted for the benefit of OC SCI during its fundraiser on March 9, 2019.
AUCTION BIDDING PROCEDURES AND CONDITIONS OF SALE
1. You or your representative (designated individual must have written, notarized authorization by you stating maximum bidding price for each of the items of interest) must be registered and present during the auction to be eligible to bid. A person who bids on behalf of another person or group will be ultimately held responsible for payment in its entirety. A person registered and bidding through the official OC SCI online auction site will be considered to be registered and present for the auction. Successful online bidders who are not registered to attend the OC SCI fundraiser will be required to pay a five percent (5%) bidder’s premium based on the amount of the winning bid.
2. All items won in a raffle or sold in an auction are provided “as is.” OC SCI assumes no responsibility for the validity of the descriptions, authenticity, or condition of any item provided for auction or in a raffle. OC SCI makes no warranty or guarantee, express or implied regarding any property or service sold at auction or won in a raffle including, but not limited to, any warranty of fitness for a particular purpose or merchantability. Values listed are as stated by donors and are not warranted by OC SCI for tax or any other purpose. Any written warranties relating any goods sold at auction or won in a raffle are SOLELY those of the manufacturer or provider.
3. All items auctioned or raffled (whether goods or services) have been acquired or obtained by OC SCI from third parties. The purchaser acknowledges that the items have not been inspected by OC SCI and that the purchaser is advised, in the case of firearms, knives, bows, bullets or other weapons, to secure a competent inspection and test of the goods before use. No services regarding any auction or raffle item will be performed by OC SCI.
4. After bidding for an item concludes and the auctioneer designates a winning bidder, the designated winner (buyer) must immediately agree to a Buyer's Agreement. For buyers at the auction location, the buyer must sign the Buyer's Agreement and one copy will be given to the buyer. For online buyers, the buyer must click "I accept" after reading the Buyer's Agreement which, along with payment for the item, constitutes agreement to the Buyer's Agreement. For silent auctions, the Silent Auction Bid Sheet is considered the Buyer's Agreement to purchase the indicated item. All signatures on Buyer's Agreements, Silent Auction Bid Sheets and Silent Auction Sealed Bid Forms, and "I accept" with payment for online purchases, are legal and binding. OC SCI will not recognize changes, additions or deletions to any auction description agreed to by the buyer and donor unless such changes are noted on the Buyer's Agreement and signed by the buyer and an authorized representative of the donor, or in the case of online buyers, noted in an electronic writing exchanged between the buyer and an authorized representative of the donor.
5. By making a purchase, the purchaser waives any claim for liability against OC SCI or the donor of any property or service, and neither OC SCI nor the donor is responsible for any personal injuries or damages to property that may result from the utilization of any property or services sold. If any action or claim is made against OC SCI by an individual, entity, or state, local, federal, foreign or political body for any matter whatsoever arising from the use of the auctioned items, or any actions or parties conducting business with respect to the auctioned items, the donor and/or purchaser will pay OC SCI’s attorneys’ fees and costs and will hold OC SCI harmless from any judgment thereon.
6. By making a purchase at the auction or participating in the raffle, the purchaser/participant agrees that:
a. The auction and purchases made at the auction and the conduct of the raffle and any items won in the raffle shall be governed in all respects, whether as to validity, construction, capacity, performance, or otherwise, by the laws of the State of California (regardless of any choice of law or conflict of law provisions of any jurisdiction), and venue for any and all actions, including litigation, mediation and/or arbitration, shall be exclusively in Orange County, California.
b. Any dispute or action arising out of or relating to the auction and purchases made at the auction or any items won in a raffle shall first be submitted to non-binding mediation before a mediator mutually agreed to by the Parties, with said mediation to be held in Orange County, California and with each party to the mediation to pay an equal portion of the mediator’s fees and expenses. If mediation is unsuccessful, then such dispute or claim shall be submitted to final and binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of JAMS relating to disputes arising out of contract, before one arbitrator, with said arbitration to be held in Orange County, California. Each party to any arbitration will pay an equal portion of the arbitrator’s fees and expenses.
7. If during a live auction, a final bid for an item is erroneously taken from two bidders, the bidding is closed to everyone else except those two bidders. The high bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be the purchaser. The auctioneer shall have the sole and final discretion to determine the successful bidder in any auction. At each live auction, there will be pre-designated bid spotters in the audience, and it is the responsibility of the bidder to direct bids to the nearest spotter. The auctioneers and spotters will make every attempt to acknowledge all desired bids, but OC SCI is not responsible for any missed bids or bids that fail to be executed.

Any bidder/purchaser who attends the live auction and leaves his/her purchases (other than a firearm for which a background check and waiting period will be required) at the auction site does so at his/her own risk. OC SCI is not responsible for any item not removed from the auction site by a winning bidder/purchaser who attends the live auction. Items purchased through an online auction will be shipped to the winning bidder/purchaser and all shipping fees are the responsibility of the winning bidder/purchaser.
10. Silent auction items will be showcased at the auction location for open bidding to all adults in attendance. All open bidding, legibly written (including name and bid) will be accepted on bid boards until the close of the silent auction). Online bidding for silent auction items will be facilitated by a representative of ABC Live Auction World (“ABC”).

If the last highest bidder rejects the offer, the item may be considered a no sale and withdrawn and may be resold later. All hunt values are printed in the auction catalog and based on information provided by the donor. The Auctioneer shall have the sole and final discretion to determine the sale of a donated item.

Although third parties sometimes provide appraisals with items such as jewelry, OC SCI does not verify or warrant their accuracy or origin.

OC SCI may undertake internal actions, which could result in sanctions including, but not limited to, suspension of a purchaser’s membership or expulsion from SCI.
4.
