Pender ReGift Volunteer Appreciation Party

28 May

Three Years Old!!!

Volunteer Appreciation Party

Dear Reader,

Well, here we are… three years later and still kicking. We have finally turned the corner of success, primarily through volunteers, and partners, like You! On Sunday, at 12:30pm, we gather once again to remember our journey. Because we have grown, this party will be in the Fellowship Hall of Pender United Methodist Church.

A time for celebration and fellowship, we have will have

stories,
games, and
light refreshments.

FAQ…

Do I have to dressup? I’m hosting and I’m not.

Do I have to bring something? Not unless you need to.

Can I bring a neighbor, a friend, or my family? Of course.

Does that include children? Of course.

One of my jobs is to be excited about our progress. Whooops!

I am!

Sincerely,

Maryann Weber

Pender Regift Thrift Store

RSVP

Yes, I would like to attend.

So, sorry, I must send my regrets.
