Students from Stanly Community College’s (SCC) Carolina Auction Academy (CAA) will host a charity auction to support St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. The event is scheduled for Thursday at 6 p.m. at Hinson’s Auction Barn in Oakboro.
This public benefit auction serves as a key component of the students’ coursework, fulfilling one of the final requirements to qualify for the state licensing exam and become certified auctioneers.
Participating students donate items for the auction. This year, attendees will bid on coins, handmade pottery, small appliances, NASCAR memorabilia and more.
Carolina Auction Academy is one of only three approved auctioneering schools in North Carolina. The course meets two nights per week to provide a comprehensive 96-hour course designed to prepare participants to pass the state exam, obtain a license, and have the tools necessary to enter the business world as an auctioneer.
