Presque Isle Rotary Auction
The Presque Isle Rotary Auction has been a community tradition for over 75 years thanks to the support of our local businesses! The format has changed over time, but the goal of raising funds to support local causes has never wavered.
In 2024, we are shaking things up a bit and offering three auction events. This online auction runs from Friday, March 22 through Thursday, April 4 as we again collaborate with Gregg Auctions.
We will also be hosting a Silent Auction at the Northeastland Hotel on Friday, April 5, and Saturday, April 6. Friday night’s event is part of the First Friday Art Walk and will include exclusive items, including work by local artists. Join us between 5-8 pm to check out items and enjoy some refreshments. The Silent Auction continues on Saturday from 12 noon to 11 pm. You can bid on items or use the “buy it now” option to take it home with you immediately.
We will also be hosting a live auction at 7:30 pm on Saturday, April 6, with a preview opportunity starting at 7:00 pm. Come join the fun of trying to outbid your friends and neighbors! The night wraps up with a community celebration in the Lounge at the Northeastland from 8:30 to midnight with music provided by a live DJ – Hands Up! Entertainment. All are invited to come join the fun, and donations at the door will directly benefit the Presque Isle Rotary Auction.
