2006 Garage Sale
Thanks so much to everyone for the great donations again for our 2006 garage sale!!! Most people reading this probably know that the garage sale was held, for the first time this year, at Suzanne & Russ’s home in their phenomenal “Prayer Barn.” Use the search box in the right hand column at the top of this page if you would like to see a picture of the barn. Even with the dramatic change in location, receipts from the sale came within a couple hundred dollars of breaking our record year holding the sale at the Center. The money from the garage sale goes into our operating budget, which supports the people studying and practicing at the Center.
It was wonderful to be able to plan for the garage sale without being concerned about whether we would get rained out. Instead, what we got was that scorching, hot weather. The barn provided shade and lots of great space. We were able to set up ahead of time and we could leave everything set up overnight for the first time. Suzanne cooked fantastic food for the workers’ lunches - a big bonus. You might want to sign up to work next year just for the lunch - really.
Most of the KTC sangha work in one role or another at the garage sale, and many of our patrons donate wonderful things year after year. Every one of you matters. Everything you do makes a difference. Special thanks to Carolyn Peterson for pulling it all off with a fantastic coordinator effort!
The 2007 garage sale is out there, headed our way…
