Over the years, the Kiwanis Auction has taken many forms. In early days, it was a Radio Auction, through the auspices of CJOY 1460, followed by or included with Live Auctions at the Guelph Armoury, the old (downtown) John McCrae Legion,  John F. Ross gymnasium and even a vacated Sears building on downtown Wyndham Street. In recent years, we were fortunate to use the facilities of Rogers Cable TV until their program schedule became crowded enough to no longer allow enough hours to properly present and sell the donated items.

The Kiwanis Auction as of 2008 became a feature of the Sports Celebrity Dinner, in both a Live and Silent format.
