Exciting news: our fall flyer is up!
Our fall sale will be held on Saturday, November 21 at 2233 Vienna-Dozier Road in
Pfafftown, NC. Gates will open at 10:00 AM, and admission is one dollar
for adults (kids are free). Please bring your own shopping bags, and
like the ladies on our flier, carpool if you can! Brookstown United Methodist Church, located on the corner ofYadkinville Road and Lewisville-Vienna Road,
has generously agreed to let us use
their parking lot again this year. The church is about ¼ mile from the
show site. There will be a shuttle bus to take you to and from the
event. The shuttle will be FREE! (However, we’re pretty sure the
driver would gladly accept tips.) If you choose to park at the church,
please park in marked
spaces only (not on the grass).
One you get to the sale, we'll have food and drinks while they last. And once again, you can dance to the music by Wicker and Jones as you shop or snack!
We'll also be raising money for Warrior Service Dogs.
As you may know from previous sales, Warrior Service Dogs is a nonprofit based in Asheville, NC dedicated to
linking trained rescue dogs to veterans suffering with the challenges
of PTSD. During the fall show, we'll collect cash donations and items
like moist dog treats, dog crates of all sizes, leashes, collars,
collapsible dog bowls, and more for this fabulous organization.
And last but not least, for
2015, the Whimsical Women are adding an easy and exciting service opportunity
to the Fall Show. Have you ever thrown out or recycled a prescription pill
bottle? Landfills do not need our empty plastic prescription pill
containers, but someone in Africa could use them to keep their medicine clean
and out of the reach of small children. The Malawi Project does just
that.
Your
part is easy: just remove the labels from your empty prescription pill bottles
(no large bottles please) and bring them to our collection box at the Fall
Show. We'll take care of the rest. With these containers, rural
pharmacies and hospitals can dispense medicines in pill bottles instead of torn
pieces of paper. Small over-the-counter pill bottles can also be donated.
Since
this is an on-going program, please also consider taking a picture with your
phone of the address below so you can continue to participate after the
show.
