June Reflection

Well, the sale was last weekend and it went wonderful! It was so much more work than I anticipated, and I am super glad it is over. We raised 1800 dollars for Roice-Hurst Humane Society! As far as the sale, on Friday we started loading furniture at 5 am and hauling it over to the church. We had to recruit another truck to help move furniture at Abby's house but it worked out great. We had everything out and on tables by 8:30 when we were supposed to start our sale, however, people were looking at things as early as 7 am. Everything that didn't sell on Saturday we donated to Goodwill, Habitat for Humanity, and anything those organizations wouldn't take, we hauled to the dump. Also, we had a man named Tim come down late Saturday after the sale and allowed him to take as many items as he wanted for free because he is doing the same thing we just did in September. If felt good to know that we helped out Roice-Hurst through another sale. I am glad this is over, but I'm very amazing at how successful it was. I am very proud of my group and I, and I am very pleased to learn our own strength when being put in charge of something this big. We will continue to visit Roice-Hurst through April of 2015 for our monthly reflections. Overall, my group and I worked collaboratively to make this sale very successful.
