The auction is our biggest fundraising event of the year, and “live” auction items are needed. We need more traditional items, such as paintings, pottery and antiques, but you can create your own fun events, such as dinners, cocktail parties and picnics. And how about Titans or Sounds tickets? Vanderbilt and UT football? Trips on the Natchez Trace, or to State Parks and Civil War sites; canoeing, boating, golfing and hiking.
Help make the GNUUC Annual Auction our best ever! It’s Saturday, March 27, at 5:00 pm. And as she has for the past two years, Christina Bridges will again be our Auctioneer! We are so lucky to have her…she’s witty and affable…she entertains us by playing the piano while we eat…and she even purchases some of our auction items for herself! Also, our dear friend, Carolyn Clements and either one or both of her fabulous sons, Walker & Collin, will be coming up from Memphis to help us with the auction. As I said, we are SO lucky! And finally, Sarajane Powell will prepare some great Mexican Dishes (including a Vegetarian) for us that evening. We will also have some Mexican beers available, in addition to the usual wine and soft drink options. A small donation will be suggested for both the food and beverages.
Donation forms are available in the church foyer and online. Please contact Mary Ellen Aurelius with questions or to donate any items – by phone at 673-2025 (home), 945-0907 (cell) or by e-mail at maryellen.aurelius@comcast.net .
