Fall Yard Sale Help
https://www.timetosignup.com/operationwildcat/sheet/1388878

Help is needed with the upcoming yard sale at the Mechanicsburg Brethren in Christ Church (www.mcbic.org)!

Sunday, October 18th, from 1:00–3:00 PM at the Operation Wildcat Warehouse. We’ll be preparing for the sale by loading the OW truck and finishing up the organization of the skids.
October 21st unloading the truck
October 22nd set up
October 23rd & 24th during the yard sale
October 24th cleanup

We need the most help with set-up and clean-up, but volunteers are also needed throughout the yard sale. If you can only give a few hours, please consider signing up for one of these times. Every bit of help is greatly appreciated!

Please commit to help ASAP. While no help will be turned away no matter how late the hour, your early sign-up gives us a better idea where and when we have gaps in the schedule. This is a great opportunity if you/your child need service hours!

Please email Maureen if you’re available to help outside the listed time slots (for example, working the yard sale from 10 AM–noon), and she’ll add you to the master schedule.

Yard Sale is looking for help in the following areas:

Yard Sale

Volunteers are needed to:

- Be at the warehouse to accept donations (times/days can be arranged according to volunteers schedule)

- Work at the warehouse sorting, organizing and pricing the items for the sale. Pricing is not a hard as everyone makes it out to be – it will all be explained. (Time/days can be arranged according to volunteers’ schedule)

- Help at the yard sale from Wednesday through Saturday (not the entire time!) to learn all that goes into setting up/tearing down the sale.

So what Operation Wildcat does with all the money raised? Check out OW Year in Review. Check out the OW website at https://www.operationwildcat.org/ to learn all about what OW does to support MASD families in need, how you can help, and how you can get assistance if needed.

P.S. We are always looking for volunteers – if you’re interested in helping with the yard sale or have questions about donating, please call or email Maureen at 717-773-1988, mmross4@comcast.net.
