The festive season is nearly here, and in Sunart that can only mean one thing, the return of our much-loved Sunart Christmas Auction. This year’s event takes place on Friday 5th December at Strontian Village Hall, with the bar opening at 6.30pm and the auction beginning at 7pm.
The Christmas Auction is one of the highlights of our community calendar. It brings people together for a night of laughter, friendly competition and plenty of festive cheer, all while raising money to support the ongoing work of Sunart Community Company.
A Fantastic Selection of Prizes
Thanks to the generosity of local businesses, supporters and friends from further afield, we have an exceptional range of prizes up for grabs this year. Whether you’re looking to treat yourself, find a unique Christmas gift, or enjoy a memorable experience, there’s something for everyone.
