The Birchleggings Club Golf Outing is Thursday, 

but the auction bidding is open NOW!

There is still time to participate.

Only four days before we tee off at the second annual BLC Golf Tournament at Creeks Bend Golf Club in New Prague, MN. You can still register and take part if you have not already signed up to play. Here is the link:

The auction is live right now!

Bidding opens on Sunday, July 13, 2025

at 9:00 am CDT.

Bidding closes on Thursday, July 17, 2025

at 3:30 pm CDT.

The auction is now taking place online using a bidding website called Givebutter. Anyone (you, family, friends) can bid on the nearly 50 items if they sign up for a Givebutter auction account. We highly recommend that you register for your personal auction account and have it bookmarked on your phone well before you arrive at the golf course on Thursday. You can browse the auction items and bid early and often! If you still need to register for an auction account, the instructions are repeated for you in the last section of this message: How to Register for a Givebutter Auction Account.

Have you already registered for the auction? Here are

Some tips to make signing in to your auction account easier.

Once you are registered for the auction, and each time you login to bid, the auction site sends you a code in your email that you must use to verify that the login is you. This is called Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). It is a good way to keep your account safe.

Although it is more secure, some folks find it a bother to have to go to their email, get the code, and enter it on their phone every time. Here is the way to disable the extra step of requiring the 2FA code if you so desire.

How to disable the need for 2FA.

Note: This disabling process may work better if you use your computer or a tablet. Some folks told us they had difficulty doing it on their phone.

      1)    Complete your registration for a Givebutter auction account. Instructions were in our previous email that was sent on Thursday morning, 7/10/25. They are also reprinted for you in the last section of this message.

Sign in to your Givebutter personal profile page using this link/button:

      2)    Enter your email address and Givebutter password.

      3)    Go to your email and find the six-digit 2FA code.

      4)    Go back to the Givebutter website and enter the six-digit code.

      5)    Click on the green 2FA Enabled button. 

      6)    Get another six-digit code from your email. Again?? Yup. It is required whenever you make changes to your profile.

      7)    Enter the code.

      8)    When you are given a choice of using your phone or email address, check the phone number. You can then choose to receive six-digit codes via text message, which is often easier than going into your email to retrieve the code.

      9)     Click on the green 2FA Enabled button. 

     10)    Get another six-digit code from your email (or phone if you checked above).

     11)  Enter the code.

     12)  Select the red Disable 2FA button.

Note: If you login from a new location or device or across multiple locations/IP addresses, 2FA will still be required.

     13)  Log out of your profile page by clicking on the round profile button containing your initials in the upper right of the screen and select Sign out.
