OLD LYME — Summer’s over. The kids are back in school.
It’s a great time to clean out the house and get it ready for autumn. But what to do with all the gently used toys, books, dishes, jewelry, tennis racquets, bicycles, Christmas decorations, furniture, etc., that you don’t need anymore?
The answer is donate them to the King’s Rummage Sale at Christ the King Church’s Harvest Fun Day!
Donations are being accepted from today, Sept. 3, through Sept. 7, and Sept. 9 through Sept. 14,from 9 a.m. to 12 noon at Christ the King Church, 1 McCurdy Rd., Old Lyme (at the Parish Hall entrance).
All donated items should be in good condition and saleable. No clothes, shoes, or textbooks will be accepted. Visit this link for a complete list of items that will not be accepted.
Call the parish office at 860-434-1669 if you have large or upholstered items to donate.
The annual Harvest Festival takes place at Christ the King Church (1 McCurdy Rd., Old Lyme) on Saturday, Sept. 21, from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., and features the rummage sale, a silent auction, a bake sale, kids games and crafts, great food, live music, and an autumn plant sale.
