What can a Rotary, Lions, or civic club auction that isn’t another gift basket?

Clubs like Rotary, Lions, civic clubs, and Chambers of Commerce have deep community roots. Members know each other. They’ve bid on the same donated baskets and certificates for years. When every event feels the same, live auction excitement fades. A real travel package, like Country Music Awards tickets, a Napa wine trip, or a Belize getaway, is an item no one has seen before. It gives the room something new to talk about and bid on.

There is no upfront cost. You only pay for an experience if it sells, keep 100% over the cost, and can sell experiences multiple times if the bidding gets hot. You are not too late: items can be added the same day as your event. Reserve what you like for free, and once you have a winner, send their details; the Travel Team handles booking. If it doesn’t sell, you owe nothing.

Call Giveback XP. Browse the 140+ experiences and pick a few that fit your club. Reserve them for free. Get the marketing PDFs, each one has photos, details, and videos when available. Add one real trip to your live auction lineup. It’s the simplest way to make this year’s event feel new.

The night of your dinner, the live auction has a trip to Napa or the CMAs on the block. Bidding moves fast. The room feels different. Your club keeps the profit, and the winning donor gets a trip they’ll talk about for years. Nothing ships, nothing to store, just a certificate handed over that night.
