DECA Kids Gear Sale – This Sunday

DECA is hosting a children’s gear and clothing sale this Sunday at Kimbourne Park United Church.

So what’s in store? Many of your neighbours will be selling their gently used maternity wear, children and baby items — the perfect opportunity for you to stock up on whatever it is you’re missing.

But wait, that’s not all! We’ll also have refreshments, crafts courtesy of Melissa of Mrs. Darling’s with gracious donations from Silly Goose Kids and a “spit and polish” table, where you can shine up your new toys with disinfectant wipes, tighten the screws and buy fresh batteries, so that they’re all ready for playing with the minute you get home.

This is a great alternative to heading to the mall — and the prices are sure to be better, too.

What: Danforth East Children’s Gear and Clothing Sale

Where: Kimbourne Park United Church, 200 Wolverleigh Blvd. (north of Danforth, east of Coxwell).

When: 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Why: To meet your neighbours, share a few laughs and fill your children’s wardrobes and toy boxes

Reminder About Renew Newcastle

Just a reminder that the Renew Newcastle event is TONIGHT at the Naval Club on Gerrard, just west of Woodbine.  There will be some snacks.  Beverages will be available for purchase. And it will be lots of fun because let’s face it, we’re fun people.  So join us.

Remember how I said that we would try to have a webcast of this event?  Forget I ever said that.  We’ll try for next time.
