Quarter Mania

Feb. 26, 2023

It’s back! Don’t miss Quarter Mania on Saturday, March 11! Billed as the Luck of the Irish, Quarter Mania is restocked with many great items plus new and old product vendors, all ready for bidders and shoppers at the Fairbury Elks Club.

Quarter Mania begins with a 6-7 p.m. Open House for vendors. Shoppers can choose products from Tastefully Simple, Free Range Rust, Norwex, Scentsy and more. Additionally, anyone arriving by 6:15 p.m. can register for a chance to win one of four $20 Quarter Mania Bucks to be used with vendors that night. Anyone who purchases an item from a vendor also will earn an extra bidding paddle. A bonus prize will also go to anyone who purchases an item from vendors. Each purchase will entitle the buyer to chance for a ticket for a special auction item.

The auction will start at 7 p.m. and the audience will have the opportunity to bid and win on 60 plus items and products. Attendees are asked to buy a $5 ticket that comes with one bidding paddle and they can also buy extra paddles for $1 at Quarter Mania. Buyers use quarters and their bid paddles to try to win the item the Mistress of Ceremony is offering. Meal tickets for the night will be sold at the door for $10. This allows participants to sample the full meal with brisket, chicken, wings, chips and desserts. People who don’t buy the full meal ticket will be limited to the chip and dip table. A cash bar will be available for all attendees.

“It’s fun, fast, and a great way to spend an evening. It is becoming a very popular event in our area. Once someone goes to Quarter, they return and bring friends and family because it is a good time,” co-organizer Diane Schutt said.

Tickets are available at the Fairbury Chamber of Commerce as well as from Diane Schutt at [email protected] or by texting 402-300-1211. Buyers who purchase tickets before Quarter Mania also receive an extra bidding paddle for pre-buying.
