Shir Share
Calling all families!
It's time for our third annual  SHIR SHARE 
  
Do you have children's items you are ready to give away? 
Or are you looking to add to your collection? 
 
Join us on  Sunday, June 18th, 9-11 am  
Bring gently used kids' clothing, toys, and books to swap
And enjoy some coffee and snacks with fellow parents while you 'shop' 
 
All of the items left at the end of the  swap  will be donated to Nearly New,
the proceeds of which help support our Shul School

Nearly New depends not only on donations of goods, but time.The transformation from social hall to a mid-size department store takes time. Sign up for shifts to see the transformation first hand.   Sunday through Friday, 10 am to 2 pm as well as Tuesday and Wednesday 6 pm to 8 pm
