We will also need people with pick-up trucks at the end of the bazaar to transport unsold Attic items to local donation centers. School students and families can earn service hours!

Please bring PRICED Attic donations (no less than 25-cents) to the hall by the school office, Door 4, or baked goodies to the school gym, Door 2, after 3:30 PM on Friday, November 10. Your donation will be a huge help in the Bazaar reaching its fundraising goals.


Support These Worthy Causes

Proceeds from this year’s bazaar will benefit Calvary School classroom security hardware to prevent unauthorized entry during class, replacement of sanctuary carpeting, and support for the Lutheran Child & Family Services Pando Program which offers one-bedroom apartments to serve people ages 18–24, with a special focus on those aging out of the child welfare/foster care system (supportive services included).
