Amerman Elementary School will host its 11th annual Hoedown, Square Dance and Silent Auction on October 12 at 6 pm.  The event is for children and adults of all ages.  It features experienced square dance caller Dave Smith of South Lyon. Proceeds of the event will benefit Kids 4 Afghan Kids, a charity begun in 1998 by Northville students to provide education and medical care to a village in rural Afghanistan.  

Tickets to the Hoedown are $5 ($20 for a family) and include a hot dog dinner, square dancing and music.  Admission to the Silent Auction is free. The Auction includes sports and theater tickets, hotels stays, restaurant meals and memorabilia.  On-line bidding, including a “buy it now” option, is also available at http://www.32auctions.com/organizations/2061/auctions/5290?page=1 until midnight Thursday, October 11.
