Treats and Treasures
The Treats and Treasures sale is set for Saturday August 17, 2024 from 7a.m. to 3p.m.
Westover’s Presbyterian Women sponsor an annual fundraiser “Treats & Treasures,”(T&T ) every year. Held each August, the two weeks prior to the event are a frenzy of gathering, pricing, organizing, and displaying the vast array of items donated by members of the congregation, friends, relatives, and church neighbors.
Westover’s Fellowship Hall becomes a shopper’s paradise of used furniture, small kitchen appliances, jewelry, dishes, lamps, toys, tools, books and luggage and so much more! Friday, August 16th starts the bargain shopping with the Treats & Treasures Preview from 4-7 pm.
The morning of August 17 at 7 am, the frenzy starts anew! More bargains, more shoppers, and lots of volunteers to bag, box, tally, and take money, checks, or credit cards. It’s a busy day and a fun day!
The afternoon of August 18 from 12noon to 3p.m. the sale wraps up with our famous half-price bargains. As the sale comes to a close, all are amazed anew at what has been accomplished in a short time!
With lots of help from the Westover Men and the entire congregation, the sale has been a huge yearly success. Proceeds go to literacy at the Pulaski County Jail, support for victims of human trafficking, gifts for Trimble House boys at Christmas (Vera Lloyd Presbyterian Family Services), the art program for kids at the Juvenile Detention Center, and Sleep In Heavenly Peace (beds for children). All leftover items are donated to the New Life Thrift Store in North Little Rock.
