To our community for their continued support of donations and purchases to make this sale possible; parishioners for all their baked goods provided; Betty Larrouy, Carol Aldax, Maria Martin, Arlene Gleich for feeding over 100 volunteers the day of sale; Kay McHale, the DeGraffenreid family and the Guevarra family for fixing special luncheons; Park Ranch for storing items; Knights of Columbus for security and parking, setup and take down; Gerry Florence from Northern Nevada Fence Product; Barone & Reed; Saletti's; Fandango; Sharkey's; Country Club; Douglas Disposal; Sani-Hut Co.; Channel 16 and Starbuck's roasting plant.
Special thanks to China Spring for their labor. Special thanks to The Record-Courier for all of our public service announcements as well as the Nevada Appeal.
And a very big thank-you to the numerous volunteers that gave many hours of hard work and put this fundraiser together.
All leftover items were distributed to the Boys & Girls Club, Project Santa, East Fork Gallery's scarecrow festival, Abbey Crossing, City of Refuge and DAWG.
We also took care of four families referred to us by Douglas County Social Services with household items and clothing. See you next year.
