          On Thursday evening, May 19th, the West Michigan Hosta Society will hold their annual potluck and auction at the Allendale Township Hall. This is one of the highlight club events of the year.  The potluck portion of the evening begins at 6 pm for those who wish to extend the social aspect of the evening.  The auction, which includes hostas purchased by the club specifically for the event plus all the lovely donations of hostas and other perennials made by members sharing their garden bounty, begins promptly at 7 pm.  Most everyone leaves with at least one new treasure for their garden. 

          The public is invited to attend this free auction event.  The Allendale Township Hall is located at 6676 Lake Michigan Drive, Allendale, MI 49401, one block east of 68th Avenue. Parking is in the back of the building.
