Annual Auction

“Fun”raising for a great cause!

Join us for the summer celebration you won’t want to miss – our Annual Auction fundraiser!

Each year, 200 guests gather for an evening of delicious food, drink, and entertainment to support the DCLT’s mission to protect the very best of Dennis. The event alternates each year between the Dennis Inn on the northside of town and the Sea View on the southside of town.

The evening culminates in a fast-paced, lively auction led by our favorite auctioneer, Mr. John Terrio. Participate for your chance to bid on a variety of unique items you won’t find anywhere else. From exclusive dinner parties with local master chefs, to weeklong getaways to far-flung corners of the Earth, you won’t want to miss your chance to bid.

Can’t make the event? Not to worry. Each year we reserve a variety of packages for online bidding only. The best part – participation is free and available to anyone, anywhere.

Our auction depends on items and experiences generously donated by member individuals and local businesses.
