From the West Michigan Hosta Society Facebook page:

"The West Michigan Hosta Society invites you to
attend the14th annual hosta club potluck and auction at the Allendale TownHall, located at 6676 Lake Michigan Drive one block east of 68th Avenue.

The potluck is from 6-7 pm and the auction follows. Bring your own table service, drinks, and a dish to pass.

Please dig, label and bring your plant contributions to our main fundraiser-the always popular auction. Many selections from Bob Solberg, VanWade,Phil Lisik, and several others are sure to entice us to expand our collections.

Open to the public you don't need to be a member to attend. If you are a member, bring your friends."

I went in 2012. Met a lot of wonderful people and brought home a car full of hostas! I don't think it's mandatory that you bring a hosta along.

The auction was a riot. My DH was so excited about picking up a hosta that we've been hunting for that he outbid me :)
