Garage Sale Volunteers
We are going to need lots of volunteers for the upcoming Garage Sale. Following the service on Apr 19th we are blitzing the neighborhood with flyers & putting up signs. Any youth (or young at heart!) who are willing & able to help we would appreciate it. Bring a bag lunch if you need it.
We will need approximately 18-20 helpers for the sale; both sorting, pricing & set up during the week before the sale (Apr19-22), & lots of help during the sale. Kitchen volunteers are separate. Sign-up sheets will be up at the back of church. So watch for them. For now, please consider how you can help & watch the bulletin for more details, email Ingrid or the office if you can help.
We are so blessed by all of our volunteers! It is what made our sale last year so successful. We look forward to an even better year this year!
