SAVE THE DATE! 2025 TWICE BLESSED SALE IS MARCH 28 & 29
DO YOU HAVE CASH IN YOUR CLOSETS?
It’s that time of year again! Time to clean out old clothes, toys, games, strollers, sports equipment and maternity items and get your home organized. The Shepherd’s Flock ELC Twice Blessed Consignment Sale is a convenient way to get rid of those items you no longer need and make some money for yourself at the same time. For those looking for gently used items in good condition at lower-than-new prices, it’s one-stop shopping at its best. This will be the 22nd year the Shepherd’s Flock ELC has organized a consignment sale for children's items. From toys to clothing to maternity items to furniture … anything imaginable can show up at the sale!
The 2025 Twice-Blessed Consignment Sale will be Friday, March 28 (9:00 a.m. -7:00 p.m.) and Saturday, March 29 (8:00 a.m. -1:00 p.m.) Start saving wire hangers and safety pins, clean out those drawers and closets , and start telling everyone with whom you come in contact about the Twice Blessed Consignment Sale at Shepherd of the Valley! It’s great for buyers and sellers, and it’s a huge benefit for our school and our children.
HOW DO I PARTICIPATE?
Selling and shopping is open to the public; no affiliation with Shepherd’s Flock ELC is necessary. To participate as a seller at our consignment sale, you must purchase a consignment seller packet. Packets are on sale beginning in mid-January. Stop by the church office during business hours (9:00 a.m.-3:00 p.m.) to purchase one. The cost of the packet is $10 for volunteers who work at the sale two or more hours and $20 for anyone else. The packet outlines easy step-by-step instructions for getting ready for the sale. Sellers determine the price of their items and receive 70% of that sale price. The ELC gets 30% of the proceeds and takes care of all advertising, set-up and recruiting volunteers to work the sale. In addition, several local charities are invited to receive unsold items at the close of the sale. It's a great blessing all around!
BE A VOLUNTEER AND SHOP THE PRE-SALE!
There is a big incentive to volunteer, and you don’t need to be an ELC parent. Volunteers who work a minimum of four hours (any combination of WHOLE hours throughout the sale dates) will be allowed to shop the pre-sale prior to opening to the public. Shopping the presale is a great opportunity to get first choice of the items for sale before they are picked-over. The pre-sale is held on Thursday, March 27 (6 - 8:00 p.m.). Being a volunteer is easy and fun! We need set-up volunteers, cashiers, taggers, floaters during the sale, take-down volunteers, greeters and check-out assistants.
