Riverview Community Centre Garage Sale

 

June 13th
9am to 4pm

 

Kids:  Have your own mini-sale at the centre!

Tables are only $5.00 for kids!

Contact RVCC for details!

 

Do you have an item to sell that's too big to bring to the centre?  Submit your notice for our Buy and Sell notice board, which will be on display at the front entrance!


Wow, what a lot of stuff!  The RVCC is filling up with all kinds of treasures, thanks to the generous donations of our Riverview residents.  You can't find these things in any mall!  If you have items to donate, you can bring them to RVCC as late as Thursday, but we would prefer to receive them as soon as possible.  Please, no encyclopedias, magazines, jars or mildew books, but everything else in useable condition is welcome.
 
Thursday and Friday evenings, June 11 and 12, from 7pm
to 9pm we are looking for a few people to help set up tables and carry boxes and goods.  We also need a few people to price glassware, ceramics, clothing, household goods, and electronics.  You don't need to be an expert on pricing, and price stickers are provided.  
 
Saturday June 13 we need people to assist shoppers in three shifts from
8:30am to 11am, from 11am to 1:30pm, and from 1:30pm to 4pm.  From 3:30 to 5:30pm we need a few people to pack up the unsold goods and a few people to lift boxes and take down tables. At 4:30pm for 1½ hours, we need a few people with vans or trucks to haul things away.
 
If you can help with any of these tasks, or if you are holding a garage sale that day on your own property, please call Steve Lennon 781-6549 (Garage Sale Coordinator).
 
I should also mention, don't forget to bring your piggy bank to the event so you can shop for fabulous bargains galore.  Refreshments, including hot dogs, will be available for sale at the concession.

 

 

 

Parking Lot Construction Begins June 15

 

RVCC is having the parking lot resurfaced.  We will be open during construction: please use the rear entrance.  It is estimated that the project will take 3 or 4 weeks, depending on how well the weather cooperates!

Parking is available on Ashland Ave. or Eccles St.

 

Access to the day care will be through the playground, to their rear doors.  There will be a mailbox for both businesses on the deck for the daycare!

 

Sorry for the inconvenience!
