Annual Acorn Auction Fundraiser benefiting The Bodine School

The Bodine School will host its annual Acorn Auction fundraiser on Saturday, March 27 from 6 to 11 p.m. at the Holiday Inn at The University of Memphis!

The Acorn Auction is the Germantown-based school’s largest fundraiser. Proceeds from the event allow The Bodine School to continue providing educational programs for children with dyslexia in first through eighth grades. This year’s theme is “Dreams of the Future,” and the event will feature dinner, live and silent auctions, entertainment by a jazz trio from The University of Memphis and dancing. Twenty-five items will be featured in the live auction, and more than 400 items will be in the silent auction, including tickets to the April 21 Bon Jovi concert at the Sommet Center in Nashville, tickets to see an Opera Memphis performance of Madame Butterfly at The Orpheum Theatre, summer camps for children and numerous other items. Tickets for the Acorn Auction are available by calling The Bodine School and are $35 for individuals and $400 for a reserved table of 10. Reservations must be made by Friday, March 19.
