The Fort Atkinson Area Chamber of Commerce has announced it will be hosting an online auction to raise funds to support its membership and community benefits programs.
According to a recent press release, the auction will go live on June 1 via the online site 32auctions. Bids will be open through 10 p.m., Thursday, June 23.
The online auction can be found at https://www.32auctions.com/fort-chamber-2022.
Among experiences to be auctioned are a shopping getaway, a ride in the Fort Atkinson Semi during the holiday parade, kayaking on the Rock River with new fishing gear, and a relaxing spa day.
“As the area’s largest business association, the chamber promotes community, economic and workforce development in the Fort Atkinson area. The Fort Atkinson Chamber presents a variety of events to foster the community’s quality of life through career fairs and exit interviews for local students, new teacher welcome breakfast, manufacturing tours and Lemonade Day. Additional community events organized by the chamber include the farmers markets, holiday parade, end-of-summer celebration Rhythm Remix and more,” the release stated.
The release continued: “Through the chamber’s diverse relationships with local and regional development-focused organizations, chamber members have access to economic and workforce development resources including the chamber gift certificate program, customer referrals, advertising opportunities, leadership development programs, and networking events.”
As a nonprofit, non-governmental organization, the majority of operating costs must be generated through membership dues, sponsorships, events, and fundraisers, the release read.
