Apollo Career Center will hold a second public auction for the Apollo house, Monday, June 27 at 5:30 p.m.
The house is a 1700-square-foot vinyl ranch and is located on a wooded lot in Cridersville at 853 Hasting Avenue. The interior includes three bedrooms, two full baths, Granite counter tops and custom cabinets.
In past years, plans were submitted to Apollo by interested parties, and a
house was chosen on the basis of location, and how the plans matched with student skills.
