Spring Rummage sale attracted many people

Mary and volunteers

The Spring Rummage Sale, held on Saturday, May 3rd, attracted many people from the community who had the opportunity to take home household items, clothing, small appliances, furniture, fresh baked goods, linens and bedding, and many other treasures. The bake sale alone raised a total of $168.00; the net profit from the Rummage Sale was $1,698.00. The only expense was the cost of bags used to take treasures home.

Coordinators of the event, Mary Johnson and Royston Bailey, had a great deal of help from the Parish family.
