"WHAT'S A CLOTHES SWAP?"

This is a totally FREE event, with NO obligation to bring anything or take anything. It's called a "swap"

because so many people bring clothes they no longer need, and take what they DO want.

HERE'S 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.

The organization will provide the bags for that day. One bag per family! This is the only way to keep the swap fair.

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 a bag of clothes. Others bring what they took last season, for another family to take this time, and bring home another season's worth themselves to start the process again.

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

HOW CAN YOU PARTICIPATE?

Look for clothes you might like to bring. Wash, fold, and sort them by size. Then call all your friends and family and ask them to do the same ... and come alone or as a group to the swap! Clothes swapping are even more fun when you can share your great finds with friends.

WHAT SIZES?

All sizes of baby, kids, and adult clothing (including coats, shoes, and accessories). VERY lightly stained clothes are OK as some people don't mind these for work or play, or are talented at removing stains. However, all clothing MUST BE CLEAN, NO TEARS. Fabric and baby accessories are welcome.

WHEN IS DROP OFF?



Anyone dropping off clothing the day before the swap will receive a ticket to gain first access to the swap, between 10-11AM.

Tuesday, November 15, 2011 from 2:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. You can also call to make other arrangements for drop-offs prior to the swap


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

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.
