It's getting closer. The Children's Centre's 12th annual clothing sale is on April 21 and we need your gently used adult and teen clothing and accessories.
We will do the sorting, so bring it all: subtle or sparkly, practical or precious, 2012 or vintage. We love accessories in particular: hats, gloves, costume jewelry and more. Not sure what will sell? No worries: quirkier, dated offerings are great fun for children's dress-up collections and drama costumes.
Please bring clothing donations to the Children's Centre during regular weekday business hours from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. That's the big red building with the green roof and playground at 650 Carter Road, on the way to IPS and Cates Chapel.
And thank you to the wonderful volunteers who helped to finish off our sorting shed so we now can work with heat and light - Chris Sorrentino, Twin Island Excavating, Bowenshire Landscaping, Kevin Toews, and special thanks to Jeff Dempsey and Peter Duplessis.
Proceeds from the clothing sale fundraiser will benefit the Children's Centre's programs: Bowen Island Preschool, the Community Daycare and The After School Club. The event also supports the Bowen Island Food Bank.
Please! Only clothes in excellent condition can be accepted. No rips, stains, or broken zippers.
For more information please contact Ann at 604-947-9626.
