“Great Island Giveaway and Social”
a community recycling/swap meet
at the Mullis Center on Saturday, October 29 2011
Drop off items/Social 10:30 -11:45
Event begins at noon!

Soroptimist International of Friday Harbor is hosting our fourth annual community recycling/ reusing event. The concept of the event is that people will bring good, clean, functional items that they no longer need or want, and in exchange, they can take home other things that they do need or want. Community item donations will be accepted between 10:30 -11:45 and the give away will start promptly at noon. After dropping of items one can stay and enjoy Cafe Femenino organic fair trade coffee with homemade cookies or leave and return for the Giveaway Event.

This project promotes recycling and the re-use: we share the wealth and help Mother Earth by decreasing our consumption and increasing awareness. All items must be clean and functional: no out dated electronics, clothing or shoes. Monitors at the doors will deny items if they don’t fit the criteria. Please bring no more than ten items.

At noon the event begins and we will allow people to take items in exchange for items they brought. Persons who have nothing to donate will not be denied entrance. People without items to donate will be asked to make a small monetary contribution to help defray our costs for space rental. For more information about Soroptimist please visit: www.sifri.org.

For information about this event please call Pat Hansen at 378-3537.

You can support the San Juan Update by doing business with our loyal advertisers, and by making a one-time contribution or a recurring donation.
