Hot off our nearly $7,000 September Rummage on the Lawn & BBQ, we are working towards our Christmas Fair, which is on November 23rd from 10am-2pm! We’ll have lots of fun activities, goodies for sale, Christmas cheer, and ways for you to help out:
- Coffee and Treats in Gabriel’s Café until 11:30am, then lunch with Mary Kay Brown’s famous Lentil Soup on offer.
- The Christmas Fair Wine Raffle and Risky Wine Box Game is collecting bottle donations beginning now. Please consider donating a wrapped bottle of something for our table or our cases. A bottle of wine, liqueur, spirits, or olive oil, or use your imagination (something in the $20-ish range please). And, if you don’t have wrapping paper, a newspaper will do – it’ll be such fun!
- We are accepting items for our Regifting Station. Everyone has a few items that they were given sitting in a drawer, waiting for the right time to give them away. Here is your chance!
- Christmas décor and ornaments: you may be surprised to note we sold just under $300 in this section last year. Please purge our way, as you prepare for Advent.
- We are also accepting costume jewellery from all eras as that’s always a big hit. We would love some of yours ….
Please note that although we will be begging you for your books, clothing, and housewares come spring, we have no storage space for these items until our spring intake. So please don’t bring those items now. Donations for the Wine Raffle, Regifting Station, Décor and Ornaments Section, and Costume Jewellery can be brought to the church atrium on Saturdays from 11am-2pm. Thank you!
