One of the many benefits of being a club member is that you get to shop for bargains before the public. Let me tell you, these are just fantastic bargains! Top-drawer merchandise at rock-bottom prices! Members can choose to donate any merchandise that doesn’t sell after the sale so you won’t have to haul it back home again.

Set Up (Friday)
Set up begins at 4:30 pm. The racks will be picked up from the storage shed and at SWIC by 4:30. The racks are then unloaded and put together. All of the tables and baskets will be set up and put out. This takes alot of helping hands. This is a great way for all the MMOM dads to pitch in. All dads are welcome to come help out. All set up team members are to be at the gym no later than 5:00 pm. As soon as the racks are assembled and placed in the gym, we will begin unloading members’ items. As soon as everything is up and in place, we can shop. This is usually around 7:30ish. The gym will close by 9 pm. We will need volunteers to help unpin and check out members Friday night. If you can stay and help with this, you may volunteer Friday night. Please remember Friday night is checks only. No cash, please. Please remember to sign in when you arrive Friday night. Your vehicle will be unloaded in the order it appears on the list.

Takedown Team
Once the sale is over, all members are asked to help sort items on the sale racks and place members items under their name on the wall. Takedown team then needs to disassemble the racks and load them into the Uhaul. All tables need to be folded up and put away. After the Uhaul leaves, members may begin to back their vehicles up to the door to load their unsold items. There is no “traffic cop” for this process, so please do this orderly and respectfully. The take down team stays until all items are out of the gym.
Our sales have always been a huge success, but it takes all of us to pull this sale off. Thanks in advance to everyone for all their hard work on the sale, and we look forward to seeing you all soon!
