The committee welcomes donations of bicycles, furniture (used, barely used and brand-new), gardening and other tools, sports equipment, children’s toys and games, jewelry, books (no encyclopedias, text books or dictionaries), kitchen utensils and other household goods, as well as antiques and other treasures.
The final drop-off date is August 6.
