Nobody can resist a tombola …

The Garvald Kirk’s stall at yesterday’s Spring Sale raised over £150 – wow!

A big thanks to everyone who donated tombola prizes. And an even bigger one to those who paid up to take a lucky dip!

There’ll be no re-selling those spoils on e-Bay now … <wags finger> … that’s just not in the spirit of the event!

A little bit of everything. And a lot of you. Thanks!

Thank you to all those who supported yesterday’s Spring Sale in the Hall. It was great to see such a wide variety of stalls, and them all so busy with eager shoppers. Special mention to the glitter tattoo artists and face painters, who were in demand from young and old alike. Here’s hoping the sparkle did wash off, or a few people (no names) might just be going to school/work with hot lips on their cheeks this morning …

The next “big event” is the Jumble Sale, on 28th June. Bob the date in your diaries, if it isn’t there already, and keep an eye on here for more information!

 

 

Spring Sale tomorrow, Sunday 26th, from 12pm …

So that’ll be why the BBC weather AP is forecasting snow …?!

Come along to browse the stalls, and treat yourself to some tasty home cooked lunch!

Set up is tonight, from 4pm. Help always appreciated, especially from those who can lift heavy tables with ease!

See you there!

Spring Show Set-up …

In case you’ve been too engrossed in the election to notice, it is the Garvald Spring Table-top Sale this Sunday from 12pm till 2.30pm …

Set up will take place on Saturday between 4pm and 6pm. Could we ask for some fit and strong help with shifting the trestle tables first thing? Many thanks in advance …

Stall holders are more than welcome to come on the Saturday, or on the Sunday when the Hall will be open from 11am. Donations of plants, tombola prizes etc will also be accepted both days …

Any questions, see Hazel, Caroline, Katy or Vicky. Otherwise, see you there!

 

Who can resist a tombola?!

Nobody, we hope as there will be one at the Garvald Spring Table-top Sale in aid of the Garvald Kirk, and its much needed roof renovation …

Can anyone look out a wee prize or two? An unopened bottle of perfume. A pre bikini diet box of chocolates. A duplicate DVD. You know the sort of thing, not necessarily a big ticket item but something somebody would like to win …

Caroline MacGregor is doing the collection and collation. Either drop your donations in at The Old Schoolhouse, or bring them to the Hall on Saturday 25th between 4-6pm. Thanks in advance.

Attention all you green fingered gardeners!

At the Spring Table-top Sale on Sunday week, there will be a gardening stall stocked with plants, tools and books … Or there will be if you green fingered bunch can help out and donate some stock!

Put aside a couple seedlings if you’re potting on. If you’re splitting a plant, think of us and make three rather than two. And go on, treat yourself to some shiny new secateurs – and give us the old ones to sell on!

The Hall will be open for donations on Saturday 25th April between 4 and 6pm. Or you can always bring them along on the morning of the sale, preferably before it opens at 12pm. If neither suits, Hazel Clark will happily plant sit so drop whatever it is off to her in Burnside Court. Many thanks in advance …
