2023 Bazaar - How to get involved

Ruellen Fessenbecker, Bazaar co-chair

It's not too early to be thinking about the fun ways to be involved in the Bazaar, which will be December 1 and 2 at the church.

We need people to join committees to help plan and run the following areas:

  • Used Book Sale: act as co-chair with Glee Noble
  • White Elephant Sale: act as co-chair with Doris Wittenberg
  • Social media

If these tasks are not right for you, there will be other ways to participate as fall unfolds.

For right now:

  • Save some of your summer produce to make pickles, jams, jellies, chutneys, dried herbs and flowers. Be creative in choosing treats for the Gourmet Galaxy.
  • As you clean your cupboards and crannies, save your gently used white elephants. We can only accept white elephants after Thanksgiving.
  • We will be accepting used books after Thanksgiving as well.
  • Be in touch with your favorite Task Force(s) about their plans for the Bazaar.

And save the dates, December 1 and 2, to help staff tables, shop at, and participate in the lively Holiday Bazaar!
