throughout the convention. Your auctioneer Maryann will be describing
packages live and encouraging your bids.  

To bid you will need to be able to raise your virtual hand. If you are using
the Zoom application, you will need to locate the "raise hand" button on the
webinar screen. If you are joining using a Windows computer, you will use
alt-y. If you are on a Mac use option-y. If you are calling in to our
convention, please use star nine to raise your hand. Our Zoom hosts will
lower all the hands between bids.

As the bidding progresses, we will invite you to unmute yourself for some
spirited live participation. If you are using the application, you will find
the mute/unmute button on the bottom left corner of your screen. In Windows
use alt-a. In mac please use cmd-shift-a. If you are dialing in press star
six. When you are finished with the vocal bids, please use the same button
to mute yourself again.
