Were you as confused as some neighborhood children who planned to attend the balloon race that sunny August afternoon? Moving to an August date was a big change for this very traditional neighborhood yard sale.
But for the Rosedale Neighborhood Association and Skinker DeBaliviere Community Council, co-sponsors of the neighborhood-wide sale, the change paid off, with nearly a $900.00 net profit after expenses. Rosedale Neighborhood President Amy Gill attributes this financial success in great part to the leadership of grilimeister Sam Green and his ever – so successful “Café Westminster”.
The reintroduction of a “celebrity” Bake Sale also helped the profit, if not the waistlines, of our neighbors. Kudos to 7th District P.O. Don Reynolds for his prize-winning cookies. Many other bakers also contributed to this tasty event.
With 39 paid vendors this year, our committee will have to work really hard to stage an even bigger and better event come the millennium.
