THE AUCTION

The Auction is held at the end of PBI, with the Silent Auction held in phases over the last two days of the session and the Live Auction is held on the last afternoon. This festive event features donations from PBI supporters and participants, both past and present. Items donated run the gamut from works created by the donors to supplies, equipment, delectables, services, experiences, and the occasional thrift store treasure. Proceeds from the auction support PBI scholarships.

People attending PBI usually bring their donations with them or create them at the event. Others may send their donation to the event between May 1 and May 20. If you plan to ship your item to PBI, please address the package to Oxbow, 3435 Rupprecht Drive, Saugatuck, MI 49453, marked to the attention of Tom Balbo (the Auctioneer). PBI would love to add your donation to this important scholarship fundraiser. Thank you!

Feel free to contact us with any questions about donations to the Auction.
