The Chuck Long Sports Auction is the largest sports memorabilia auction in the Quad Cities area. This year’s theme is “The Olympics”. The evening starts with the Tailgate Preview- a chance to enjoy tailgate type food and beverages and preview the auction items.
We not only offer autographed items from Football, Baseball, Basketball, and NASCAR figures, but also Celebrities!
For our “not-so-sports-oriented” guests we have our General Store that features items such as gift baskets, overnight packages and jewelry.
There is definitely something for everyone!
Last year’s event raised $69,000.00 and we are looking to raise even more at our 2008 Auction!
