****** CAN YOU HELP? ******
For our ‘Inspire’ Marketta, we are having a market style setup. If you have
craft items or goods you would like to sell on the day, could you please see
Julie Markham, Sue Briers or Belinda Bee, or call the office 55646222.
Cost to have a stall would be a small percentage of sales which will go to our
fundraising for our Nepal project.
We are also hoping to collect some good quality, second-hand clothing and
small bric-a-brac items which can be sold cheaply on the day and all funds will
go to support work in Nepal.
Make sure you grab this term’s ‘Youth Events’ flyer for details on what’s on.
Find them at the information Desk . . . and ...
