Penobscot Bay Regional Chamber of Commerce Auction
Starting on October 19, 2009, the Penobscot Bay Regional Chamber of Commerce will be auctioning off a number of fun and unique items to bid on to raise money for our organization - and the more items we have the more money we can raise, so we're asking for your help. The online auction will run from October 19 through November 16, with about 100 items heading to our live auction on November 20 at the Samoset Resort in Rockport.
Auction items will include lodging packages, gift baskets, a biplane ride, photography services, airline tickets, train rides, boat trips, festival tickets, artwork, landscaping supplies, business services, gift certificates for lodging, restaurants & services and much, much more. There will be hundreds of items and gift certificates to bid on.
