A lively auction & good food...you can't ask for anything else!

The podium is up and Jeff is ready to go! We have had a fun week with everyone stopping by for a tour of the facility. It's been great to sit on the veranda and have coffee & conversation with people. We are really inspired by some the fantastic ideas that people have been coming up with & we will be utilizing some of those great suggestions!!

We kick off Table #1 at 10AM with Jeff Chestnut

OK...the news is out, we have a 2nd auctioneer!!!! We will be introducing to our auctioneer staff; Mr. Rich Branski.

Quotes From The Block

Every auction house has their own lingo and Hoosier's is no exception here are a few of our unique quotes straight off the block:

"Money Money on Marge!!" - Marge is not a buyer at Hoosier's she is our Floor Cashier. When a bid is called, "Money, Money on Marge!" you'll find Margie skirting through the crowd to collect $$ on someone who is paying Cash on the Floor. If this slogan is heard at the grocery store or in the fields at Brimfield it means someone has spotted a Chestnut in the crowd.

"It's not where the Bidding Starts...it's where it stops!"
~Jeff Chestnut
"I-I-It's Auction time!!"
~Again, Jeff Chestnut

Quotes from the Hoosier Office...

"Please enjoy the Jeff Chestnut Show."
This phrase was given to the weekly auction by the Day newspaper in the Market Place Section on July 2005 by Mr. Richard Norman, Reporter. Mr. Norman was kind enough to feature us in the Day Market Place Section and this quote just stuck like glue. We frequently use this phrase in the office & would like to give a nice big Thank You to Mr. Norman!!!
~The Office Staff

"Jeff to the office. Jeff to the parking lot. Jeff, consignor check out. Jeff...Jeff...where's Jeff? Hey....Dad want to do Consignor Check Out?"
~Kerri Chestnut (Every Thursday)

Chestnut Family Factoids...

As with every family business it is important to make sure everyone feels as though they have made a contribution to the process. Our children are a big part of EVERYTHING we do and it is important to us that they feel they are contributing to our Family's Success....Chestnut Family Factoids is their creative contribution to our blog...so without further ado....I turn over Chestnut Family Factoids to the people who know us best...
Our Children...

Thank You, Parental Figures :-)

We would like to congratulate our parents, Mr. Jeffrey Chestnut & Mrs. Kerri-Lynn Chestnut, on the purchase of their NEW Auction Building!!! This is Dad's life long dream and all we have to say is: "I-i-i-it's Auction Time!"

Also, as the siblings of Tim Chestnut we'd like to say CONGRATULATIONS at making it to SNHU!!!! ~Brandie & Tyler

PS...Tim, can you start packing so I can have your room? Tyler ;-)
