The Bergstroms are Adopting / Garage Sale
« on: October 02, 2010, 12:53:04 PM »
Hey all...  Many of you may already know about this, but I thought I would make the information official!  After many years, Lisa and I have decided to adopt a child from the MN area.  I talked about this briefly at the meet, but I thought you might like to hear about a cool fundraiser that we are doing in the next couple weeks.

The Bergstrom's are having an Adoption Baby Fundraiser Garage Sale on October 15th and 16th . Do you have anything around the house that has some value that you would be willing to donate to the sale? Anything that you think might sell for $5-$10 or more would be great!

We are accepting drop off's of items at our house starting anytime before the sale. I can also come to pick up items as I have a trailer and am willing to trav...el. (Please contact me to schedule).

Anyone who is willing to make a donation is welcome to preview and purchase prior to the sale opening to the public on Thursday evening from 5-7pm.

We are expecting the sale to be very large as we are asking for donations from hundreds of families and community members. We believe that it will be a great event for you to get rid of some of those things that you haven't used in years, and also a great place to come to shop for those things that you have always needed.

Please consider donating several items for the sale, and we look forward to seeing you at the event!

We are willing to accept things like...  spare boats, mortorcycles, classic cars, etc...  :)

As you know, Brian & Lisa are having a fund-raising sale on October 15th & 16th.
Kelly & I stopped by to drop off a couple items last night.

REQUEST TO TWIN CITIES MEMBERS;

A few volunteers are needed to stop by Brian's on Thursday the 14th and help organize & freshen-up a few items.
Brian does not know about this request until he reads the thread.
Kelly & I will be there, how about a few others?

If anyone from the west side has something to donate but no way to transport, I have a pick-up and I'm willing to deliver.
