June 3, 2020 - Guild Picnic (begins at 11 AM, under the pavillion)
This is how it works:
• You go through your fiber arts stash (books, magazines, fiber and equipment) and remove items you no longer want/need that someone else may desire. (You know, the "what was I thinking?" or "been there, done that" kind of stuff)
• You bring them with you to the picnic and display them on the tables provided.
• At the picnic, you see an item you want, you put your money into “the contribution box". The
amount you choose to spend on the item should be reasonable for the used value of the item at a "yard sale". (Proceeds are used to support the Guild library, speakers, and facility rental)
• Some larger value items are purchased through a silent auction which takes place before the
beginning of the yarn sale.
Bring a "pot luck" picnic luncheon item to share. The Guild will provide plates, cups and napkins.
We will also provide ice tea, water and lemonade.
AND... Please bring lawn chairs in the event of good weather..
