This initiative offers a unique opportunity to gather with others in the CSLDallas community in various settings—be it homes, parks, or virtual spaces—to share meals, enjoy diverse activities, and forge lasting friendships. Each event you attend not only enriches your personal experience but also supports the thriving mission of CSLDallas, making a tangible impact through your participation.
Enjoy events ranging from bowling, karaoke, five-course meals, escape rooms, weekend getaways, energy healing, watercolor painting, game nights—you name it! There’s something for everyone.

- Visit our Silent Auction page – Open June 1 to June 30
This will allow you to bid on seats at the various events. The auction will utilize an automated bidding process, so you can simply set your “max” bid for each seat you’re bidding on, and be notified once you’ve been outbid. The link to the Silent Auction is down below. - Choose “Register to Bid” on the Silent Auction (GiveButter) site
“Sign Up” and create your account.
Save your login credentials. - Enter the Verification Code
From the email sent to the email address you provided. - Enter your Credit Card or PayPal information
Enter a credit card to participate and place bids.
NOTE: Your card will only be charged after the bidding closes and only for seats you win.
If you would like to receive emails/texts about Fun With Friends, check the box at the bottom labeled “Allow CSLDallas to contact me” before clicking “Save & Continue”.
Note: You do NOT need to check this to receive updates about winning or losing bids; those notifications are handled separately. - Choose whether to cover processing fees
By default, the “Cover Processing Fees” box is selected. You may choose to unselect it or leave it checked to help CSLDallas cover the 2.9% + 30¢ processing fee. - Choose whether to appear anonymous
If you wish, select the “Appear Anonymous” button to keep your name hidden. - Click “Complete Registration”
- Click “Browse Auction”
Scroll down the page to view all events. See date, time, and number of seats available.
Note: On a computer, you will see the first 4 seats. On a smartphone, you will see only the first seat. Scroll through the seats to find the one with the lowest bid and make your bid on that seat. - Click on the Image of any event or the “Seat #” under an event image to learn more.
Here you will be able to see:
– Starting Price
– Bid Increment
– Buy It Now Price
– Fair Market Value (used for tax purposes)
– Bid History (total bids and current high bid)
– Event Description (Host, Date/Time, Location)
– Spots Available (i.e., seats that can be bid on)
For private events, only the city and ZIP code will be listed until the bid is won. Full address details will then be shared with winners. - Bid on your “seat” at one (or more!) events
Click the blue “Place a Bid” button.
If one seat’s price is too high, check for another seat using the “Next” or “View All Items.”
Want to be sure you get a seat? Use the “Buy It Now” option to secure your spot instantly. - Winners will be notified automatically
You’ll receive all the event details after winning. This is when your credit card will be charged. - Mark your calendar
Don’t forget your event date and time! Our host will reach out to you 2–3 weeks before the event so you have any additional details.
