So what can we do, Rita? The yard sale items in your yard should be OK but I would not leave anything on the ground too long with the frost Woven brightly, Daniel J. Matthews, Jr. Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2009 14:21:45 +0000 Subject: [oconee] Yard Sale/Fund Raiser Redux   The yard sale was tough sledding on Saturday because of the weather. Still, we managed to collect about $250. Not bad considering it was 49 degrees and rainy. Thanks to everyone who worked so hard and stood out in the cold rain! Still, we didn't do as well as we wanted and there's lots of really nice stuff left, so we decided that we would try again this Saturday, October 24th. However, we need people to help with set up and selling. The set up will be easy, because we left much of the stuff out and under tarps. It is supposed to be a lovely weekend and there's no Georgia football, so we should do very well. Of course, that means that we need all hands on deck. Anyone who can spare a few hours on...

I will come and pick them up, or you can drop them off at Rita Bennett's house on the corner of School and Second Streets in Watkinsville. Her house is across the street from the left field corner of Rocket field and near some of the cool street art of spinning wheels inside a colorful painting. We need your help in donating your items that you are no longer using for a yard sale for the Oconee County Democratic Committe during the Oconee County Fall Festival October 17. You can call my house at 706-769-1131 and leave a message or just haul it on over to Rita's house at School Street. We need it soon and urge you to price it yourself, or at least suggest a price when dropping it off. Rita's driveway is on Second, and I just spent a couple hours lobbing off vast chunks of privet, wisteria and crepe myrtles to try and make her yard just a little more presentable for the mass quantities of people presumed to be walking by for the Oconee County Fall Festival that same day. ...

Please assist with any donation of sawhorses, card tables, counter tops or other portable tables. We can come pick up and return. Woven brightly, Daniel J.

If you have any heavy or large items, let me know. I will see if any of the people with trucks could help you. I know Sarajane has some furniture she needs picked up. Please let me know if any would be willing to help her. We need tables. Becky had got some countertops we can use but someone needs to get them. We would need sawhorses to put them on. I know Diana has some, but we would need another pair. Tables are slim at the moment, and we desperately need more. Volunteers are needed to work setting up...

We need your gently used items for a yard sale in two weeks. Please email me back or let me know if you have any items we can resell. Or you can tell from the forwarded email below how to get a hold of Rita to drop things off at her her house personally. She has a side porch that you can drop off items almost any time.
