Chinese Auction presented by Aurora Daniels
to benefit Brown Dog Foundation
6:30pm: Chinese Buffet ($9.95++)
7:00: Auction ($2/paddle; $10-$20 in Quarters)
If you've never been to a Chinese Auction, you do not truly know what you're missing! Buy up to 5 bid paddles for $2/each and then bid on 50 different items for just quarters. It's a great way to get some truly amazing items for mere quarters!
The event will be held at Jumbo Buffet in Madison in the Due West Plaza on Gallatin Road about 20 minutes from the West End Area of Nashville.
This is a great way to donate to Brown Dog Foundation and get something for yourself... for mere pocket change! See you in Madison.
This event raised $567.50 and enjoyed the attendance of 28 supporters - most of which were introduced to Brown Dog Foundation for the first time. Special thanks to Aurora and Chris Daniels for their dedication to our organization!
