The ServNet Auction group recently highlighted the wave of summer-season sales its independent auctions plan to host in the coming months.

“The summer promotions at ServNet are trend-setting events, and for years have defined the season,” said Patty Stanley, the group’s president. “They bring customers together from all parts of the country for good times and great opportunities for buying and selling vehicles in the auction lane.”

Here’s a list of a few of the group member’s upcoming summer-themed auctions, according to ServNet:

• Carolina Auto Auction’s 50 Days of Summer: Running June 3 to July 15, this sale will feature a chance to win $35,000 in cash and prizes throughout the event, also with a chance at CAA beach towels, beach balls, as well as free food and drinks at the event.
• Brasher’s Idaho Auto Auction’s 15th Annual Smoker Sale: This two-day event, hosted from June 17 to June 18, will feature 2,000 cars and trucks. As part of tradition, the sale will also include a competition between local dealers and other members of the industry in a “no-holds-barred” 8-bout boxing match at Century Link Arena in downtown Boise in front of 4,500 fans. Following the matches, auction owner Doug Brasher will enter the ring for the “Last Man Standing” contest to raise money for local charities.
• DAA of the Rockies’ 5th Annual Live Charity Event: Hosted June 18 in Denver following the auction’s regular sale, the charity auction will benefit the Freedom Service Dogs of America to highlight the importance of community involvement.
• Missouri Auto Auction Brewmaster Sale: Slated for June 19, dealers will compete to win Anheuser Busch signs that auction owner and general manager Kevin Brown has collected over the last decade and a half.
