Marys River Grange volunteers are gearing up for their annual Amazing Grange Day fundraiser, scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 16 from 9 a.m.-2 p.m., and they’re calling on the community to help make it a success.
The Grange will accept the donation of rummage sale items on Sunday, Aug. 10 from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. at Marys River Grange Hall. The organization is seeking a wide variety of items, including furniture, clothing, kitchenware, sports equipment, toys, books and artwork.
Organizers ask that donors not bring mattresses, chemicals, large appliances, large exercise equipment or electronics.
Amazing Grange Day serves as one of the organization’s primary annual fundraisers and features both the rummage sale and a silent auction for pies. Judy Hays-Eberts, Marys River Grange president, said money raised through the event will go toward a remodel of the hall’s kitchen.
Any items that don’t sell during the rummage sale will be donated to other local organizations, such as clothing items going to June’s Kids Kloset.
Community members who can’t make it to the hall on Sunday can arrange alternative drop-off times by calling 541-829-2907 or emailing marysrivergrange@gmail.com. The same contact information is available for anyone with questions about acceptable donation items.
Marys River Grange Hall is located at 24707 Grange Hall Road.
