It looks like Mother Nature is on our side today – the rain is clearing just in time for our holiday market to kick off at 11:00. Yay! And don’t worry, we’ll be all set up indoors in Thornhill’s Multipurpose Room, so come join us for some fun holiday cheer!
Bonus points for dusting off those festive sweaters and holiday outfits because the more over-the-top, the merrier! The Holiday Market will offer a seasonal array of gift items, all handmade by Thornhill 4th and 5th graders. Shop AND raise money for 4th and 5th grade school programs simultaneously.
There will be baked treats, apple cider, and pizza! Gift wrapping will also be available. Entry is FREE, and EVERYONE is welcome—bring along your friends, family, and neighbors!
Date: Saturday, December 14
Time: 11:00 am - 1:00 pm
Location: Thornhill Multipurpose Room
The Holiday Market will utilize a price sheet system. Upon arrival, before entering the multi-purpose room, attendees will visit the "check-in" station to collect a price sheet, mini pencil, and shopping bag. Shoppers will mark the price sheet as they make choices, visit the gift wrapping station and/or buy showpiece cake raffle tickets.
When shoppers are done, they will present their price sheet (with items in hand) to the Check-out station before leaving the multi-purpose room. The volunteers at Check-out will calculate each shoppers purchases and take payments - we will be accepting Venmo and cash.
To pull off this super fun Saturday shindig, we need help from all of you - our amazing Thornhill community.
Please consider signing up for a quick 45 minute shift to help out - and make friends in the process.
