Their annual charity auction is a great opportunity to socialize and have fun while raising funds to support the objectives and projects of the Miamisburg Rotary Club and Rotary International.   

Tickets are $35.00 per person and may be purchased from any Miamisburg Rotarian or at the door. Additionally, members of the general public may purchase tickets or make a donation through our website at: https://q.miamisburgrotary.org?agd. Tickets  include auction admission, dinner, and entry into door prizes drawings.

Bidders will be requested to complete an information card to ensure proper allocation of their bids, delivery of receipts, and recognition for their purchases. Payments by winning bidders are due the night of the auction and may be made by cash, check, credit card, or Venmo.  Credit card purchases will incur an additional fee (less than 4%) to cover the charges incurred by the processing service.   

Silent auction items will be available for bidding. Auctioneer Frankie Lewis will conduct the live portion of the auction for many other popular items. 

All auction proceeds are allocated by the winning bidders to The Rotary Foundation (Polio Plus or Annual Fund), or to the Miamisburg Rotary Charitable Trust Fund. You may donate the full amount to one fund, split your donations among the funds, or leave it to be allocated as needed
