Important news about the Seminole Rummage Sale
We are thrilled to have secured a storage unit due to a generous donation by Madison Verona Self- Storage. Once we have drop off times scheduled, we’ll let you know - expect to have multiple options and we can make alternate arrangements if needed.
This event has potential to raise a lot of funds - similar events by other organizations have raised over $10,000; however, we will need help with not only supplying donations, but also some people-power. We will be sending a sign-up genius in the near future to get a sense of if we are able to get volunteers to make this work. Please consider volunteering in some way. We are specifically looking for some “team leaders” as there will be many moving parts for this event.
We will need tables and ideally some tents - if you have some that you are willing to let us use, let us know. Even better, if you have a connection for larger tents or a bigger number of tables, feel free to introduce us!

Gather items for our silent auction and a raffle. Our goal is 20 baskets and other packages - please reach out if you have something to donate. Baskets can include local gift cards (big or small), bottle of your favorite beverage or maybe some other talent to share. We will be more strongly recruiting donations for this in the coming weeks.
