Cleaning out those closets for spring & summer??

children and adults.

SEE BELOW FOR RULES/PROCEDURE FOR SWAP



HOW IT WORKS:

At home, sort CLEAN clothes by size and bag or box. Bring clothes to the
swap and hand in to uniformed staff at the entrance to the cafeteria. DO NOT
give your donation to anyone outside the building.

Bring a REUSABLE GROCERY SIZED BAG or regular plastic grocery bags. We will
have some bags if you do not bring any. NO laundry baskets or garbage
bags. Strollers are OK for kids but NOT for collecting clothes.

ONE BAG AT A TIME may be filled. You may fill a bag, take it to your car,
and then return to the swap. This process may be repeated many times
provided the attendee does not take amounts deemed excessive (i.e.,
suggestive of resale or use for an organization). Swap volunteers have the
right to ask an attendee who is taking too many clothes to leave the swap.

SWAP VOLUNTEERS will wear identifying clothing/name tags. Only approved
volunteers will be allowed in before the swap starts.

NO CHARITIES, CHURCH GROUPS, SHELTERS, MOM-TO-MOM PARTICIPANTS, OR RESALE
GROUPS will be allowed. If your group is interested in leftover clothing,
you may ask to be put on a request list.


Attending the swap IMPLIES CONSENT TO THESE RULES. The very few who abuse
the generosity and good intentions of this event will be expected to leave
empty-handed.
