Athletics Benefit Auction Set for April 30

The Hartwick College Athletics Benefit Auction will return Thursday, April 30, from 6 to 9 p.m. at Lambros Arena.

One of Hartwick Athletics’ premier fundraising events, the auction supports student-athletes by enhancing their collegiate experience beyond the department’s operating budget.

After a successful relaunch last spring, organizers look forward to building on that momentum in 2026. Proceeds from the event directly benefit Hartwick’s student-athletes, helping provide expanded opportunities, upgraded resources and meaningful competitive experiences.

Executive Director of Athletics Paul Vecchio was thrilled with the energy and generosity the community showed last year.

“The Athletics Benefit Auction is about more than fundraising,” said Vecchio. “It’s about investing in our student-athletes and giving them experiences that elevate their time at Hartwick. We’re excited to grow the event and continue strengthening that support in 2026.”

The auction will feature a curated selection of high-end auction items, such as wines and spirits, sporting event tickets, vacation homes and getaways, entertainment packages and specialty items. Organizers are currently seeking premium donations for the event. Donation form.

Tickets are available for a $50 donation per person or $90 per couple. Community members are encouraged to register in advance. Registration form.
