There are over 40 items up for bid on the committee’s Facebook page, ranging from Via Rail gift certificates to sports jerseys.

Fireworks committee member Tom Cogghe says Canada 150 event has a pretty big budget.

“Typically our budget is between $20-25,000,” Cogghe explains. “That covers the fireworks show, and on top of that all the kids’ activities and the entertainment, and everything is free for the  community outside of the vendors that are there.”

The auction runs today until Wednesday.
