For one of our recent evening programs here at Wellington Terrace, several of the dedicated Second Time ‘Round volunteers facilitated a fashion show in the clearing for our residents, showcasing the clothing, shoes and various accessories that are available for sale at the gently-used clothing and housewares store in Elora.
Several residents, participated in the fashion show as well, modeling clothing that the volunteers picked out for them to wear for the show. All resident and volunteer participants looked stunning on the runway.
The efforts of the Second Time ‘Round volunteers as well as the resident models were very much appreciated for putting on a wonderful show. Another fashion show is planned for 2011.
Volunteers of Second Time ‘Round welcome gently-used, quality clothing and house-wares donations, to sell at the store. In particular they are looking for bedding and towels, as these are ‘hot items’ at the store these days.
Anyone wishing to make donations are welcome to drop them off at the store during business hours: 10am and 4:30pm Tuesday to Friday and 11am and 3pm on Saturdays.
Donations are always very much appreciated, and all proceeds from the store go towards enhancing programs and services for residents here in our home. Organizers are currently looking for more volunteers to join the volunteer team of Second Time ‘Round. If you would like to give 3.5 hours a week, or on an occasional basis, volunteering as a clerk for the store for a morning or afternoon shift, please contact: Mary Black Gallagher at (519) 846-5359, ext. 266, or at maryb@county.wellington.on.ca.
