Better Than Rummage Sale
Sep 13, 2019
Hats off to all the volunteers who made the Rummage Sale happen
The “Better than Rummage Sale” fundraiser at the end of September by CVHS & CV Kiwanis was a whopping success! Shoppers were delighted with the huge selection of quality collectibles, housewares, furniture, art, jewelry, gardening tools, plants, toys, electronics, tools and seasonal items. The most frequent comment was “best sale we’ve ever been to.”
