Lions Garage Sale Report 2014

7/6/2014

It took a week to set up and a week to clear out, but overall the event was a great success! Collection week went very smoothly. Being open the Sat before and Mon-Fri at lunch-hours turned out to be a nice way to do it. We had many more great donations this year and being able to hold and set up the event indoors was a great blessing. We borrowed 10 long tables from Duane at Keyline and still filled up the entire home hardware building with great items for the day of the sale. Thanks to everyone who so willingly donated! Thanks to all the garage sale-ers and helpers at the event. Everything seemed to proceed quite smoothly. Our pricing policy took a little while for customers to get used to, but we got some good positive feedback on how it went. Clean up after the event also went fairly smoothly on Sat and continued on throughout the following week over lunch-hours and as time permitted. After all the sales, we still boxed up most items - about 30 boxes of clothing, 20 boxes of books and games, and 40 boxes of housewares/misc items were picked up by the Diabetes Society on Thu at 10am to go to Lethbridge. Some of the bulkier unsold items were driven to Cardston for donation by Lion Shauna. The tables were returned Thu and we swept out the building. The final larger 'odds and sods' items were moved out the following Sat and a single van load of dump worthy items taken to our local facility. We prepared a thank you letter for Jay Mackenzie at Roosters and returned his keys to him on Mon 9 Jun 2014.

Total proceeds this year were just over $1300. Setup started Sat 24 May 2014. Sale was held Sat 31 May 2014. Cleanup week ended Sat 7 Jun 2014. Great Job Everyone!

Playground and Garage Sale 2013 Completed

16/6/2013

Thanks to everyone who helped with the lions playground install last week .. especially to Lion Tom and the Town of Magrath staff and crew for arranging to find and install the gravel before the big Fishing Derby weekend! See this link to some photos: Album: 'Lions Fishpond Park Jun 2013' on Google+. I think it looks great and we are getting lots of positive feedback. We will install the plastic borders next week (now that they have arrived) and write the final check, but all in all .. its a wrap.

On another front, Lions Elizabeth, Tracy, Laurie-Ann and Alex and helpers competed the Lions Garage Sale II on Sat 15 Jun 2013 and managed to clear all the donated items stored in my Mom's garage and clean it all up before we made our way back home (sorry we were away that morning). Thanks, eh!

Sat 21 Jun we installed the plastic borders around the perimeter .. yay - all done now!

Have a safe and fun summer. See all you lions at our 2013-14 opening picnic meeting - scheduled for Sat 31 Aug 2013!

UPDATE: Did you miss us last month at #1? We are now planning a Lions Community Garage Sale #2 .. on Sat 15 Jun 2013 from 9-noon again at home of Lion Elizabeth Olsen. See you all there!
 
Do YOU have STUFF? Sure you do! You could donate some of that STUFF to the Magrath Lions Club Garage Sale and then come by to buy some new exciting STUFF! Event will be held at the home of Lion Elizabeth Olsen (because it may be a bit weathery and Lion Mom has a garage) Last year very few items were left over and we had it all cleaned up shortly after 3pm. The rain held off for us most of the day (except for brief droplets) and the turnout was fantastic.

Thanks to everyone who did and will so willingly donate items for us to share with Magrath. Thanks to the Lions and Leo Kids who helped price and organize and sell said items, and to Lion Elizabeth Olsen who prepared flyers to distributed around Magrath, to Lion Laurie-Ann for loading the sign in front of Town Hall .. We simply advertised: "Have items to donate? Contact a member of Magrath Lions Club (magrathlions.com) for pickup by Fri  Jun Lions Garage Sale on the 7th Jun .. Want to help? Come on Sat 15 Jun 8am we will be setting up for 9am start .. Need to shop? See you there on Saturday!" .. and they did and hopefully will next time too.

Thank you Magrath! The Lions Community Garage Sale #1 was successfully completed Saturday May 11 9:00AM-1:00PM with over $500 raised toward our many Magrath Lions Club Projects! Lots of people got neat stuff to 'treasure' and/or 'recycle'. Yay to all. Have a great summer!
