45th Annual Baron Community College Foundation Big Benefit Auction

The Big Benefit Auction is the most successful and longest-running fundraiser for the Barton Foundation. The money raised supports academic scholarships and enhancements to the programs and facilities to directly impact the learning experience of Barton students. The auction is made a success each year by the hard work of volunteers and generous donors and sponsors. Volunteers from the community, in partnership with Foundation board of directors, call on area businesses, organizations, and individuals to secure items for the live and silent auction.

Each year the auction averages 150 silent items and 40 live auction items – the items range from merchandise, to gift certificates, services, hand-made items and special events such as dinners, trips, ballgames etc. All attendees enjoy dinner and social hour before the live auction.
