On Sunday, May 4, 2025, at 11:00 a.m., the Betty Griffin Center hosts a Quarter Auction at Tringali Barn.

Registration is open for a bidding bonanza, all to support a meaningful cause. To participate, simply complete the registration form. Guests are encouraged to bring rolls of quarters or purchase them at the event to participate in bidding.

Upon arrival, each guest will receive a paddle marked with a unique number. The guest drops their number into a drawing bin to place a bid. When bidding begins, everyone raises their paddles and randomly selects a number. They win the item if the drawn number matches a guest’s paddle. 

The event will feature four bidding rounds. The first begins with a one-quarter bid for items between $10.00 and $25.00, gradually increasing to a four-quarter bid from $75.00 to $100.00. Items exceeding $100.00 will be auctioned through unique eight-quarter bids. Food trucks and handmade goods from vendors will also be available. 

Proceeds from the event will go to the Betty Griffin Center, an organization supporting individuals affected by domestic violence. This organization supports more than 1,000 people each year through services such as sexual assault recovery, a rape crisis unit, counseling, court advocacy, legal aid, transitional housing, and educational programs.

By taking part in this event, attendees not only enjoy an engaging and community-focused afternoon but also contribute to life-changing support for those in need.

Admission: Tickets cost $25.00.

When: Sunday, May 4, 2025, at 11:00 a.m.

Where: The Tringali Barn, at 7310 US-1, St. Augustine, Florida 32086
