The First Congregational Church of Western Springs

On Tuesday and Wednesday evening, April 28 &amp; 29, from 5:30-8pm, The First Congregational Church of Western Springs will hold its Annual Spring Rummage Sale. (Wednesday night's sale is a half-price and bag sale!)
For treasure seekers who love a bargain, this is a sale that will not disappoint. The Education Building on the church campus at 1106 Chestnut St. will be chock-full of everything from home furnishings, clothing, toys, collectibles, jewelry, sporting equipment, electronics and more. And, best of all, profits from the sale support the work of numerous charities close to home and around the globe.
Gently used donations will be collected via a convenient drive-through service in the church parking lot off Woodlawn Avenue on Saturday, April 25, from 9am-Noon and Sunday, April 26, from 1-3pm. Donation guidelines are posted on the church website at <a href="https://www.wscongo.org/rummage/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">wscongo.org/rummage.</a> Donors are encouraged to consult the guidelines before dropping off their donations.
The success of the sale, which has been taking place for more than 80 decades, depends on the help of hundreds of community members. Volunteers who work three or more hours are entitled to presale shopping. Help is needed in setting up for the sale, collecting and sorting donations, working the sale, and post-sale clean-up. Free childcare is offered on Saturday and Sunday; though kids ages 10 and older are welcome to help out beside a parent or adult chaperone. Light snacks are provided throughout the week, and the energy, laughter and companionship make the work enjoyable for all who participate. Advanced volunteer sign-up is strongly encouraged and begins on April 1; however, walk-in volunteers are welcome as well.
Whether you donate, volunteer and or shop, First Congo is grateful for any and all help. We hope you’ll join us and be a part of something wonderful. Get all the details/sign-up at <a href="https://www.wscongo.org/rummage" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.wscongo.org/rummage</a>.
