Auction house bangs last gavel

Going once, going twice ... McClain Auctions is closing its landmark Kakaako store at 825 Halekauwila St. with a final auction this weekend. Ten percent of the proceeds will benefit the Hawaii Children's Cancer Foundation.

Those attending the event, hosted by auctioneer Marty McClain, will be treated to a barbecue courtesy of Murphy's Bar & Grill and can bid on a room full of surprise stash, including a shipment of goods from Manele Bay Hotel on Lanai.

Auction times are 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday.

Though the Kakaako shop is closing, McClain's downtown facility at 1 King St. will continue to hold its regular schedule of events. For more information, call 596-3900.
