Yes, 2002 is approaching and the February weekend for this fun-and-work filled event. It's all of you we are counting on to help us again this year with all of the preliminary planning and work it requires.
In the meantime, for those of you still packing to return, remember to leave a wee bit of room for some small items you might be able to squeeze in one of those suitcases--or car, van, truck or recreational vehicle. You don't want it--we'll take it. Before leaving, many of you deposited your used-to-be treasures with us and hopefully will bring some more back with you, or find more disposable items here when you return. And, yes, we'll take those, too!
Tomorrow we make another pickup from one of our members, Lois Steele, who unfortunately will probably not be returning. She's cleaned out her lovely condo and is donating superfluous items to our cause. We thank her and wish her well--but do hope she will be back for a visit occasionally.
This year we will be calling for more assistance--we need you and the time spent will be an enjoyable experience. Keep us in mind--as we all know, your "junk" is another’s treasure find. Call me when you have your "treasures" ready.
See you all soon.
