Our group will be having it's next clothing swap on August 21st. You can swap your used clothes for new to you used clothes. If you donate clothes or items you can get in to the swap an hour early to pick out clothes for yourself and family. You do not have to donate to participate. One large bag per person will be GIVEN by us. You may also get an extra bag from us for a dollar donation. All money collected is used to support our Easter Baskets for needy children, Christmas Baskets for families and our back to school back pack projects. We will be taking registrations for back packs at the swap from 10:00am to 11:00am. The packs will be filled with school supplies, hats and gloves, and will be given to families in need.



We will also be selling food and holding a bake sale during the swap. All proceeds from the food and bake sale will also go to our Easter Basket, Christmas Basket and school back pack projects.

Please pass this on to family, friends and anyone who you can think of that could benefit from the swap.

THIS IS FOR INDIVIDUALS ONLY. NO charities, shelters, or resale.

HERES HOW IT WORKS:
At home, sort and fold CLEAN clothes (clothes you wouldn't mind putting on your family to go out in public) by size into boxes or bags. THEN, when you get to the swap, sort the clothes by size onto marked tables. Next comes the fun part. Go to the tables with the size clothes you are looking for, and take what you need. Free of charge. No strings attached. There are no minimums or maximums.

Some families are looking to clean out the clothes they no longer use, and they bring boxes of clothes in, sometimes leaving with just one or two "special" things. Other families are really in need of clothes, and come with little or nothing, but leave with bags of clothes. Others bring what they took last season, for another family to take this time, and bring home another seasons worth themselves to start the process again.

PLEASE NOTE: For safety reasons. All children must be supervised.
