Historical November 1989 report or notice. Original dates, prices and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.
Get into the holiday spirit early at the annual St. Roch’s Christmas Bazaar, to be held Saturday, November 11 from 10 a.m. til 4 p.m., and Sunday, November 12 from noon until 2 p.m.
The bazaar will be held in the Church Hall in the basement of the church, located at Waterman and Rosedale. Shop for family and friends from a selection of holiday decorations and ornaments, as well as hand-crafted items such as clothing and toys.
The shopper will find a wide variety. Try your luck at some very fine items which will be offered at a raffle. Refreshments will be available both days. Santa will be on hand Saturday, from 11 to 1 to hear all about those Christmas wishes, as well as to have his picture taken with the little ones—or the big ones, if they wish! Also for the kids will be a “For Children Only” booth, where specially selected, low-cost items can be purchased with their piggy bank savings.
These items can be wrapped to take home in secrecy.
All proceeds from the bazaar support the activities of the Women of St. Roch, an organization of parish women dedicated to raising funds and providing resources for parish needs.
