Wondering what to do with your unwanted household items?
Bring them to the Reuse Fair! Reuse Fairs are one-day community events that bring
together non-profit community groups, churches, schools, hospitals and businesses with
donated household items. Your donations will be used to enhance the craft, sports,
music and other programs provided by many non-profit and charitable organizations.
Please consult the back of the flyer for the updated list of accepted items. When you
arrive, be prepared to place each of your items at specified location. Some surplus
items may be available for the taking.
Learn more about environmentally friendly practices while at the Reuse Fair!
 Get important information on recycling, composting, energy and water conservation methods.
 Visit artisan booths that incorporate reusable items in their wares.
 Book Exchange – take some or leave some! (Paperbacks, hardcover and magazines)
This event is a success due to caring citizens volunteering. If you are able to volunteer a few
hours of your time, please contact Renée at 462-7001. Volunteers are needed to help set up,
assist unloading vehicles, sort items, survey the public participating, and for clean up.
This event is a fun way to meet others in your community and help the environment at the same time!
SEE YOU THERE!!!
