Thank you for your understanding in these matters.

What Kind of CLEAN & USABLE & UNTAGGED Items Should I Donate? Antiques, Baskets, Books, Collectables, Electronics, Furniture, House Wares, Jewelry, Linens, Office Equipment, Seasonal, Sporting Goods, Tools, Toys, Children’s Clothing (dresses, two-piece outfits, winter-wear on hangers) and Adult Clothing (suits, dresses, shirts, slacks and coats on hangers.)  We do not accept Christmas trees, cribs, computer monitors, curtain rods, exercise equipment, infant seats, mattresses, microwaves, organs, paint,  televisions WITHOUT digital converter boxes, skis or water beds.

How Can I Help?  Please save items and encourage family and friends to contribute to and attend the garage sale. Offer to take items to the church for them. There are extra flyers in the church office – please share them with anybody and everybody!  It takes a swarm of volunteers to create a buzzing sale.  Volunteer sign-up sheets are located at the Information Desk.  Help will be needed during the week of set-up, during the actual garage sale, and during the clean-up. (Anyone who helps clean-up can keep any unsold item.)
