Christ King School/Parish holds its famous annual Children’s Clothing and Furniture Resale this weekend, Friday and Saturday. If you’re looking to get in on the best inventory, line up to get an entry number at 4:30 p.m. on Friday. The sale starts 6:30 – 9:00 (Friday) and continues Saturday 9:00a.m.- 3:00 p.m.
Over the years, I’ve heard that the sale is packed – so you need to be committed to find good deals.
Mark your calendars, too, if you want to visit their Toy Resale just before the holiday season. Friday, November 13 6:30 – 9:00
Adults only at the sale. No children on Friday evening for safety reasons.
Hotline number is 414.258.4160 x 47
This Friday, Saturday and Sunday over 10,000 used books could be your thrifty treasures for a great cause – increasing Milwaukee area literacy. The recently retired Oakland Avenue Harry W. Schwartz bookstore makes a sentimental setting for this year’s sale. Sales times are 9 a.m. – 6 p.m.
Community at its best! Add Saturday, September 26th, 8:00 a.m. – 12:00p to your calendar. Market, Food, Stories, Music in the Village
A committed group of volunteers in our community has been hard at work to bring back a viable Farmer’s Market to our fair city. As a result, we will enjoy a 2010 seasonal Farmer’s Market located by the Little Red House, under the Harmonee Bridge.
The realities of well-stocked Farmer’s Markets (from the farmers and vendors POV) is that they, understandably, only want to commit to those Saturday markets that will be profitable for them. Will our Tosa community show up to shop and support this new Farmer’s Market? Like the Whos in “Horton Hears A Who,” this is our opportunity to shout “We Are Here! We Are Here!”
To answer that question, the market organizations have put together an exciting one-day Kickoff to 2010 event to show vendors and potential vendors that Tosa rocks the fresh, local produce, flower, bakery, etc. market.
Outpost is the official Kickoff sponsor. (Nice!)
Maxie’s is throwing a special breakfast. I’m getting more details.
Bakery will be provided from The Outpost and Local Industries, and bread from the Breadsmith;
Olive oil from Oro di Oliva;
Fall produce from Basse’s Country Market, Wellspring, and Bosch Family Farms;
Flowers from Plot Thickens;
Chef demo with Chef Pepplar;
Story-telling at 10:00 a.m. with Molly Del Vecchio and Nancy Clarkin; and
Live music from a popular Tosa East High School jazz ensemble.
Would anyone consider assisting in the yard sign effort to build awareness? Yard sign are still available for $5.00. Contact Maureen at millmanns@wi.rr.com to get one.
Here’s to a great showing in the Village on the 26th! May our fabulous weather continue on the day!
