Danny's Auction Barn announces new Flea Market to open in April / Spring Auction Schedule


Danny Calise, owner of Danny's Auction Barn in Foster, RI has made an announcement that his new flea market will open in April at his location on Route 6 near the RI/CT line.

Danny holds hopes for success in that he has heard "from a reliable source" -- whom he did not name -- that Rocky Hill Flea Market in East Greenwich, RI has closed for good.

I recently spoke with a dealer who sells there who told me that he expected to return in the Spring. He said that the phone number for Rocky Hill plays a recording stating, "See you in April."

Imagine my surprise then, when I phoned the number today. I got a recording saying that the number had been disconnected. I double-checked it to be sure I dialed correctly. I did. Maybe Danny does have reliable "inside sources"!

Anyway, along with the new weekend flea market, Danny's regular and special auctions will continue.

Another lumber auction will be held on Saturday, March 1 at 12 noon. To ensure that inclement weather does not rain on the parade, this auction will be conducted inside the barn. The last lumber auction was a huge success -- a great opportunity to pick up bargains if you'll be doing home improvements.

On Friday, March 14, Danny will hold a Horse and Tack Auction at 6 pm.

On Sunday of that weekend, the biggest Livestock Auction of the year happens -- Danny's Palm Sunday Auction -- which starts at noon and runs into the night. The auction boasts a huge variety of small farm animals and birds, as well as yard and garden supplies, and spring plantings. It attracts bidders from near and far.

A Fishing Auction will be held on Friday, March 28, at 6 pm. There's a wide array of poles, reels, and accessories for the sportsman as we embark on the fishing season for 2008.

Finally, an Equipment Auction will be held on Sunday, April 6th at 12 noon. These auctions usually offer previously owned construction and other industrial equipment. I will provide an update here once a list is provided of actual items to be sold.
