2007 Christmas Mart
PLEASE
mark calendars now! The annual Pohick Church Christmas Mart will take
place on Thursday, November 15, from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm. This event
is sponsored by the Women of Pohick Church, the Ann Mason Guild, and
the Martha Guild. The women have been busy for months working on crafts
and planning for this wonderful event. The Parish House and the Vestry
House will be turned into a lovely Christmas atmosphere and all the rooms
will be filled with beautiful arts and crafts, Christmas attic treasures,
consignments, and of course, delicious items to suit the taste buds from
the baked goods, pantry shelf, and frozen casseroles tables. A delicious
luncheon is served by lovely ladies dressed in colonial costume. There
are three sittings: 11:00 am, 12:00 noon, and 1:00 pm.
There are
MANY, MANY opportunities for the congregation - women and men - to participate
in making this another successful Mart. There will be many announcements and
requests for help now through November 15. There will be some way for everyone
to volunteer! This year the Attic Treasures room will be for ONLY Christmas
Attic Treasures. Therefore, as the attics and closets are cleaned for the Country
Fair, save the unwanted Christmas ornaments and decorations for donation to
the Christmas Mart. More information will be in upcoming issues of the Pohick
Post.
Questions
should be directed to the 2007 Christmas Mart Co-Chairs: Connie Myers, Jackie
Wells or Prudence Brooks.
Christmas Mart Jewelry Table
Unused jewelry now has a purpose! Please donate any jewelry no longer needed to the Christmas Mart Jewelry Table. Profits from the jewelry sales have been very substantial for the past few years, thanks to lots of donations. Any jewelry, in any condition, is useful. Broken jewelry is bagged and sold to craft makers.
Jewelry can be left in the Church office, or given to Pat Osisek, Anne Poad, or Cammie Liddle. Questions should be directed to Cammie Liddle.
