The Carriage Auction's goal is to create a good, clean environment for families, bidders, consignors, and our community volunteers. We ask that vendors and consignors respect this environment and refrain from offering items that are discriminatory, degrading, racial, or drug- and alcohol-related. The Committee reserves the right to refuse any consignors, vendors, or items that do not meet these guidelines or are otherwise deemed unacceptable. We consider attendees and vendors to be our Guests for the day on our auction grounds.

We hope you savored time with family and friends over the holidays and enjoyed reminiscing of the good old days. Yearning for more time together again? Perhaps in the warm, summer sun while sampling Pennsylvania Dutch foods and meandering rows of antiques that are sure to spark a memory? Plan to join us at the 14th annual Lancaster County Carriage & Antique Auction on Friday, June 28, 2013!
