RUMMAGE SALE SUCCESS!

Who doesn't enjoy a good shopping trip?

2 girls who enjoy shopping and clothing, got together to see if they too could host a rummage sale in Eastend to raise a little

money for the Eastend Memorial Hall. We knew Shaunavon hosts rummage sales, and thought maybe we could do the same with a little community help in donations and support. We truly had no idea what we were in for, the community support in donations was incredible: the bags and boxes far exceeded our expectations!

The doors opened Tuesday March 19, and the community showed up to support us! Support also came from out of town. The rummage sale was a 2 day event, on the Wednesday we were treated to a winter wonderland and thought for sure no one was going to show up. That was no the case, again we had a great turn out and support. We made a total of over $ 2300 before expenses.

Where do all the clothes, shoes, bags, bedding etc go you may be wondering. Soft materials and jean material went to the Eastend School to support schoolprojects. Mens clothing will all be going to the youth centre in Swift Current. The 295-3714 Women's shelter will be receiving the items they requested to be lost beneficial for them. The MCC Thrift Store in Swift Current will also be receiving a large donation as they provide coupons for individuals living in shelters to shop for free!! This helps both the shelters with storage for clothing and the MCC Thrift . Tires store. Shaunavon Catholic Church Hall will also be receiving the younger girls items and baby clothing for their Rummage Sale April 24 & 25th.

Thank you to everyone who supported our rummage sale, all funds raised went to The Eastend Memorial Hall!
