IPGA internet seed Auction - KICKOFF seed offer!!!

Hello Pumpkin growers,
                                   I would like to invite everyone to join us 
next week for the 2nd annual IPGA (Indiana Pumpkin Growers Assoc.)seed 
auction. Last years auction was a great success and helped the IPGA host its 
first GPC weigh-off.  Before we get started I would like to thank everyone 
involved for their help. The list is long so forgive me if I miss someone. 
Obviously I would like to first thank all of you who donated seeds toward the 
auction. Many of the seeds from this auction came directly from the growers 
themselves. A few special seeds However did not. I would like to extend 
special thanks John Maston, Marv Hicks and the PGPGA, and Wayne Kennedy for 
their special donations of seeds.  I would also like to thank Duncan for 
allowing us to use the list for this auction and Hugh Wiberg from the GPC for 
his support in getting our weigh-off site established in Indiana.  And last 
but certainly not least Howard Dill for developing this awesome line of seeds.
     In an effort to help the IPGA get off to a great start Wayne Kennedy has 
offered a Checkon 815 to the highest bidder. All bids are to be submitted 
privately to the following address: Brad2Julie@aol.com   NO BIDS SENT TO THE 
PUMPKINS@MALLORN LIST WILL BE ACCEPTED. Otherwise we would have a list full 
of bids cluttering up our e-mail.  This is a silent auction(i.e. nobody will 
know what you have bid.) The kick-off offer will end at mid-night friday. The 
normal auction itself will start Monday January 17.  There will be five seeds 
a day offered up for bid. If all goes well the auction will last for ten 
days.  Everyone who grows Giant pumpkins is welcomed to bid except for those 
living in the State of Oregon. Oregon forbids the sell of vegetable seeds in 
its state without a special license which I do not have. If you live in 
Oregon and would like seeds please fell free to email me to discuss this 
further.
     Some of the premier seeds you will see over the next few days include 
the following:

Checkon 815
Mettler 865
Lloyd 876.5
Sproule 968
Patrick 947.2

and many more
                         I hope you all enjoy the auction during the next 2 
plus weeks. If you have any further questions feel free to ask. Thank you for 
your support.

Brad Walters
