Bidding opens November 1, 2026, and closes November 15, 2026, at 11:59 PM Eastern.
The highest valid bid submitted before the deadline wins the exclusive right to Coaster Club Number 001.
The minimum bid is $25. Bids must be submitted in whole-dollar increments of $5.
Current Coaster Club members may exchange their existing number for #001. Winning does not extend or renew their membership.
Nonmembers may participate but must purchase a $50 annual Coaster Club membership in addition to paying their winning bid.
The winning bidder must pay the full winning bid to claim #001.
The winner will be contacted after the auction closes and must complete payment within 7 days. If payment is not received, the number may be offered to the next-highest eligible bidder.
If two participants submit the same highest bid, the earliest valid submission wins.
Multiple bids are permitted. Each new bid replaces that participant's previous bid for purposes of determining their highest offer.
Coaster Club #001 remains assigned to the winner as long as their membership remains active and in good standing, subject to regular club membership rules.
The number cannot be sold or transferred to another person.
100% of the winning auction bid will benefit the Hale family. Any membership dues are separate from the donation.
The winning bidder is determined by the highest eligible bid, not by a random drawing.
