Do we have a treat for you this year or what? With all of this talk of fall and everything changing for autumn, the members of the Natchez Garden Club are working with our noses to the grindstone to make this year’s Fall Bash better than ever.

As always, NGC’s Fall Bash is organized every year to help fund the improvements of Magnolia Hall and the House on Ellicott’s Hill. With many changes in store for Magnolia Hall’s exterior, we would love to have you all join us for some fall time fun at our annual silent auction.

Scheduled for Thursday, this year’s bash will be at Rip Rap, the home of Brenda and Richard Edgin, in downtown Natchez at 411 S. Rankin St. With the silent auctions kicking off at 6 p.m., be sure to get yourself in the door to start your bidding and continue throughout the evening when we shut it down at 7:30 p.m.

This year’s event is not only going to wow you with our packages up for grabs, but also going to entertain you with the acoustic musical stylings of “Speakeasy.” These boys are ready to play some of your favorites while you sit back, enjoy time with friends and make a few bids along the way.

Some of this year’s packages include: a Lake St. John home for a weekend’s stay; a trip to a fabulous and exclusive cottage in Gatlinburg, Tenn.; a photo session with T.G. McCary to capture your precious moments with loved ones; a year of flowers from Moreton’s Flowerland; the opportunity to host a party at Rip Rap; jewelry to help you play dress up; and tons of goodies from different stores and restaurants in the Natchez area.

We are thrilled to have a cash bar courtesy of Southwest Distributors and E & J Gallo Winery and appetizers from several local eateries.

We are so excited about all that this year’s event has to offer, and we hope to see everyone there. With tickets only $15 a person, how can you say no to this event? So mark your calendar, get a babysitter and head on down to Rip Rap for this year’s Fall Bash.

For more information, call the Garden Club office at 601-443-9065, check our Facebook page, follow us on Twitter and Instagram and check your Pushlocal account. Be sure to follow our Facebook page closely Thursday for sneak peeks of what you can bid on that night.
