Fourth Triennial Silent Auction: Items Needed

This year marks our fourth IOS Conference Silent Auction. At the 8th International Oak Society Conference at The Morton Arboretum in Lisle, Illinois, we added a Silent Auction to the agenda. The Board decided to use proceeds from that first auction to help fund student scholarships to future IOS Conferences. Including those students who have already received scholarship funds to the 11th IOS Conference this October in Oaxaca, MX, we have helped 23 students attend our Conferences.* To make these silent auctions successful, we have relied on the help from membership, and we need your help once again. We are looking for anything oak/plant related, such as crafts, woodworking items, shirts, hats, jewelry, art, books, etc. Unfortunately, we cannot auction off live plants or seeds this year. If you have items to donate, please contact me as soon as possible (click here to email me). 

*Silent auction funds were supplemented by generous donations from Judson Parsons.
