36th Annual Glitzy Garage Sale
June 1, 2 & 3, 2012
Are you in need of decluttering but don't know what to do with all that stuff? Drop it off for the 36th Annual Womanspace Glitzy Garage Sale! This is our biggest and longest-running fundraiser and your one-stop donation site. We will start accepting items in May 2012. If you think an item is questionable, please call Womanspace at 815-877-0118.
Many volunteers make light work and there are many tasks we need help with. If you’re interested please contact Trish Black, Volunteer Coordinator. For a more immediate opportunity, download a copy of our Garage Sale Flyer and post it on your car window, public bulletin boards, etc.
