  Need help the week of October 6th through the 11th with set-up, receiving items and displaying.

Contact Lana Nugent for further details.
  
  
  
  
  
  St. Mary's Rummage & Bake Sale -Friday, October 10th. 12:00 - 5:00 and Saturday, October 11th. 8:00 - 12:00. October 6 - 11th Rummage Sale -
  St. Mary's 4th year offer... to help you clean out your home of all those unwanted "treasures," all of those items you no longer use or need -
  Again this year the Council of Catholic Women are holding a parish rummage and bake sale for two days. We hope that many of you still have LOTS of treasures to get rid-of and that we can use to support church programs and projects. Donated items can include furniture, household and lawn items, linens, sport equipement and memorbilia, camping supplies, toys / games, books, crafts, seasonal decorations, miscellaneous useable items, and clothing for all age groups. Special items of value will be priced separately i.e. Longaberger Basket collection items that we know will be available for this year's event. A popular sale promotion is Bag Sales. Friday, October 10th,all items that can be placed in a bag will be $2.00; and, Saturday, October 11th, all items in a bag will be $1.00. This will not include higher or valuabl priced items.
  
  Items can be brought to St. Mary's Parish Hall starting Sunday, October 5th. and placed in the corner near Jeanie's office.
  
  Sign-up sheets will be available in early September for volunteers to help organize items to be sold and to help with the selling on October 10th & 11th.
  
  Each year the Bake Sale is an important part of the two day event. It adds a personal touch to the day as free coffee is available and includes a wonderful selection of food items for the shoppers. Sign-up sheets for volunteers to make food items will be available in early September. As in previous years, please cover well any item that is to be sold individually and no custards or foods with ingredients that will require refrigeration.
  
  Any questions- please ask a member of the Council of Catholic Women- Connie Helms, Lana Nugent, Fran Plude, Helen Harvey, Nancy Anderson.
  
  Thank you to our parish family for making this event fun- and successful.
