Donors can drop off gently used items at FMJH this Friday from 12:30 to 5 p.m. or email Dette Mom Christine Putnam at jcputnam@swbell.net  to arrange pickup of larger things. The Highlandette Booster Club is a 501(c)3 nonprofit, and Dettes will provide receipts for your tax-deductible donation.

Serious shoppers can donate $5 for access to early shopping Friday night from 8-10 – a bargain for first access to contributions from the 50 drill team members and others in the community. Entry on Saturday from 8-2 is free, and you’ll find sporting goods, electronics, furniture, housewares, handbags, jewelry and clothing. Hard at work at the sale will be drill team members, including Highlandette Captain Lizzie Arnold. You can read more about her here.

Forest Meadow is at 9373 Whitehurst and Abrams.
