Rummage for Rhinos Sale

East End Service Entrance of the Zoo on North Parkway
The Memphis AAZK chapter will be hosting a "Rummage for Rhinos" sale to benefit the International Bowling for Rhinos campaign. Come on out and "rummage" through our vast array of donated items for sale. All proceeds from this "yard-sale" event will go towards rhinoceros conservation efforts. You can find used baby clothes, furniture, and unique novelty items as well; who knows what treasures you'll find! Check out our Facebook page for more information!
