Help Our Tag Sale October 20th

Dear Families,

On Saturday, October 20th, we will be holding a tag sale at the Milton High School from 9:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.  Here are eight ways you can help:
  1. Clean out your house, garage, shed, barn, closet, attic, car, office etc. and donate any gently-used goods to the tag sale.  We are looking for clothes, baby toys, toys, sports equipment, furniture that is in good condition.  We only want items that have a high probability of selling.  Please do not give items that you would not buy yourself.  Items can be dropped off at Milton Mini Storage, Unit # 32 at 11 Checkerberry Square in Milton.  People will be there to collect goods on:

    Wednesday, October 10th from 4:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.
    Saturday, October 13th from 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
    Wednesday, October 17th from 4:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.

    You can also drop goods off at the school on October 20th from 7:00 a.m. - 10:00 a.m.

    If these times do no work for you please contact me, Joe Smith, at 893-3215 ext. 1208 or email jsmith3@mtsd-vt.org to make alternative arrangements.
  2. Help collect donations at Milton Mini-Storage at the above times.  We need someone to unlock the unit and be there while people bring their items.    We will split the times so that you only have to do a two hour shift.  On Wednesdays, 4:00-5:30 and 5:30-7:00 and on Saturday 9:00-11:00 and 11:00-1:00.
  3. Help set up the day of the tag sale. Set up will take place from 6:30 a.m. – 9:00 a.m.  Last year we were fortunate to get a big truck to move goods from the storage unit to the school.  If we cannot get a big truck a few pick-up trucks would be very helpful.
  4. Work at a table to during the tag sale.  Sign-up times are from 9:00-10:00, 10:00-11:00, 11:00-12:00, 12:00-1:00, and 1:00-2:00.
  5. Help break down the tag sale.  Breakdown will be from 1:30 pm – 3:00 pm.
  6. Bake delicious food.  Please drop off at the school on the 20th between 8:30 am and 12:00 pm.
  7. Spread the word.  Let your family members, friends, and co-workers know about the tag sale.  Post on Facebook, Tweet, or any other place where people will see it.  Encourage them to donate goods and to shop on the 22nd.  One person's refuse is another person's treasure.
  8. Shop at the tag sale and find hidden treasures.
All 8th grade students who participate by collecting goods at the storage unit, help setting up, work the tables at the tag sale, bake goods for the tag sale, or help break down the tag sale will have the profits from the tag sale equally distributed into their student fundraising account.

Please contact me to let me know how you can help.

Thanks,
Joe Smith
