Table Top Sale to Help Fund Pied Piper II

Shirley Methodist Church, 'Octagon', Stratford Road, Bham

 

As you may be aware a stage show is not cheap to build and  the ‘The Pied Piper II’ is no exception. It is for this reason that we are seeking interesting new ways to raise money. The more we can raise to cover the costs of the show, the more money will be donated to our selected good causes from ticket sales.

Happily, we now have the opportunity of table top sale at Shirley Methodist Church otherwise known as ‘The Octagon’ on the Stratford Road on Saturday 4th September.

It opens at 9:30am to set up and the sales happen between 10am and 1pm.

If you want to help there are two ways of doing this:

  1. We need YOU to help sell the items. The more bodies the better. The more people the more we can talk about the show and look after the tables.

  2. We need your THNGS – toys, games, gifts, cakes & groceries, electricals, etc. In fact anything (EXCEPT CLOTHES)

 So start gathering good items you no longer need to sell, and please be generous. The more we have at this stage the better the show, the better it is advertised and the greater success we achieve. Success means assuring a future show and giving more money to Joseph Chamberlain College’s student support fund and selected charities.

Come along all!!!
