First Town Forward Auction

️ BID LOCAL. WIN BIG. KEEP WINDSOR THRIVING.

Windsor Center isn't just a place — it's your grocer, your barber, your neighbor waving from across the street. It's the smell of coffee from a shop that knows your order, and a hardware store where someone actually helps you find what you need.

First Town Downtown needs your support to keep it that way.

 FIRST TOWN FORWARD ONLINE AUCTION March 22–28, 2026

Every bid you place is a vote for the Windsor Center you love — the local owners, the familiar faces, the community that shows up for each other.

Here's how it works:

•  Preview items & register now — browse what's up for grabs before bidding opens
•  Bid high, bid often — the more you engage, the more Windsor wins
•  Read the auction rules before placing your first bid

Prizes are awesome. The cause is even better.
