Betty Griffin Center Fourth Annual Quarter Auction Set for Oct. 11
Event Details
Tickets are available now for Betty Griffin Center’s Fourth Annual Quarter Auction from 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 11 at the Tringali Barn, located at 7310 US-1 in St. Augustine.
The Quarter Auction combines the thrill of an auction with the excitement of a raffle, where guests can bid on silent auction items donated by local businesses, vendors, and Betty Griffin Center’s thrift shoppe items.
Bids range from 25 cents to $2. Every quarter bid and every dollar raised will directly support shelter operations, counseling, advocacy, and the many other vital services the nonprofit provides to survivors of domestic and sexual assault in St. Johns County.
Tickets are available online at https://www.ticketsignup.io/TicketEvent/OctoberQuarterAuction.
General tickets are $21.29 per person and includes one paddle, wine, beer, iced tea or lemonade. Bidders can bring their own quarters, or purchase rolls of quarters at the event.
VIP tickets are $77.89 per player and includes one paddle, wine, beer, iced tea or lemonade, along with prepayment to take part in all bidding – excluding silent auction items.
Vendor booths are available. Please contact Carole Sullivan at Caroles@bettygriffincenter.org for more information.
