A big THANK YOU to everyone who helped with, donated to, shopped at, and supported today’s garage sale!

We cleared out many items that had accumulated as the Family Center has grown and evolved over the past 25 years, while also raising funds to support the Center and our preschool program. We are grateful to have more room to organize, refresh our spaces, and prepare for a new school year and reinvigorated programs for our community this fall.

Due to the rain forecast for tomorrow, we have decided not to hold the second day of the sale. Thank you again for making today such a success!
