This year’s auction will feature over 50 items in both a live and silent auction, a live auctioneer, light hors d’oeuvres, and a cash bar.

Student and faculty tickets are $10 per attendee and will be available in the Student Lounge starting Monday Feb. 23 through Friday Mar. 6 and at the door. Cash, check, and credit cards are accepted.

The Auction will be held on Saturday March 7 from 6-9pm at the FirstMerit Club Level on the 5th Floor of the InfoCision Stadium press tower.
