UPDATE!!!!!
New location!!!
Bethany Lutheran Church
3701 West Slaughter Lane, Austin, TX 78749
Thursday, October 18th from 1-3pm for the 7th Annual Clothing Swap.
This is an open gathering.
We would love to have you join us!
Start gathering your items and prepare to bring them to the swap.
The following items are welcomed:
clothing for the whole family, games, toys, baby items, books, etc.
All unclaimed items are donated to charity.
If your children are in need of some clothing, or if you are in need of more space in your
overflowing closets and drawers, this is a great opportunity.
Here’s what to expect:
Gather up all of your family’s outgrown-BUT-still-useful clothing, coats,
jackets, toys, books/curriculum, etc., and bring it all to 3701 West Slaughter Lane, Austin, TX 78749
Our goal this year is to make the “shopping” as easy as possible. Instead of making 1 big pile, we will have the following options:
GIRLS SIZES
0-24mos.,
2T-5T,
6 & 7,
8 & 9,
10 TO JUNIOR
WOMENS
BOYS SIZES
0-24,
2T-5T,
6 -12
MEN
MISCELLANEOUS
SHOES
Please PRESORT the items you will be bringing so that they can be put in the correct pile.
May God bless you in your giving and receiving.
Each mom is then free to collect any items that will be of use to her family.
We ask that there is a continued spirit of giving and sharing as we have experienced in the past.
This not the place for greed, hoarding,snatching or any other unfriendly conduct.
If your goal is to come and take the best items to resell, we kindly ask you to rethink your motives.
When you come to this event and see the community coming together with open hearts and open hands, giving to
meet the needs of one another, it should move you to want to do the same, not take advantage.
There are NO limits, there is NO cost.
We freely give and we freely receive at this event!!!
Once all the moms are done “shopping” @ around 3pm, we gather the leftovers to donate them to charity.
Each year most moms leave with arm loads and we still have piles to donate.
So bring plenty of bags to take home your goodies.
You are welcome to attend the swap even if you don’t have items to contribute to the swap.
This is an opportunity to bless others as well as be blessed, so come.
The church is located in South Austin:
3701 West Slaughter Lane, Austin, TX 78749
Hope to see you on Thursday October 18th @ 1pm!
Be sure to bring a friend!!
In the past we have had anywhere from 40-60 or more families participate and it’s growing every year.
