Text Box: OP SHOP NEWS

Forty nine friends attended our op shop luncheon at the Warragul Country Club on the 28th November.   It was a great success with everyone enjoying the lunch and having an opportunity to meet new volunteers as well as catch up with co-workers they do not meet very often.

Our garage sale on Saturday 1st December did not have the usual numbers attending probably due to the fact that there were several garage sales the same day and getting close to Christmas some people have other more important things to do.   Although we did not have many large items of furniture we had lots of smaller items.   On the day we took $666.50 and were holding $1,809.50 from weekly sales since our last garage sale ten weeks ago.    We therefore ended up with a total of $2,475.95 on the day.   This is a considerable amount of money and the warehouse team should be very proud of their achievements.  Once again our thanks to everyone who has helped raise this money through their efforts.

Our warehouse will be open on Thursday 20th December for the last time prior to Christmas and will re-open on Thursday 3rd January.     The shop closes on Friday 21st December at 4.00pm and re-opens on Thursday 3rd January at 9.00am.    Notices will be placed in the shop to this effect.   We are all looking forward to a well earned break over the Christmas period.   On behalf of the committee we wish everyone the compliments of the season and our thanks for your support.

May the spirit of the Christmas Season
fill you with joy,
and we hope your New Year shines with
peace, love and happiness.
