Dixon Quarter Mania is a group of direct sales leaders, crafters, and local businesses who hold regular Quarter Mania events in Dixon. The event was the first of its kind in the Sauk Valley and is innovative and fun! Each Quarter Mania event supports a charitable organization.
A Quarter Mania event is a cross between an auction, a raffle, and a vendor show. New and discontinued items from local vendors will be auctioned for one-to-four quarters per item. Vendors will also have cash-and-carry items available for sale. Food and beverages are available for purchase. There will also be a 50/50 raffle with tickets available for purchase, donated to Skyhawks. Ticket prices are: one ticket for $1, six tickets for $5, and 15 tickets for $10. There will be many silent auction items from local business and out-of-town donation.
