1. Our First fund-raiser of the the year is a (1)"Rummage and Bake Sale" in conjunction with the Village's annual sale in Mid-May. Gently-used items and freshly baked goods!
(2) The second and most-anticipated event is our "Strawberry Social." It is held on July 4th unless the weather is not nice, it will be held the next day, July 5th.
(3) Of our 3 major fund-raisers throughout the year, the longest-standing one is our annual (3) Antique Show and Sale, which is always held on the first Tuesday in August. In 2011 we will be observing forty-two years for this popular show and sale. This is held at the Mackinaw City High School from 10am to 4pm. Lunch is available all day and is served by club members. Admission is only $2.00 for all day long.
(4)Two new fund-raisers are getting attention also. One is "medic-alert /ID bracelets" and necklaces that are decorated with colorful beads instead of a just a chain. These are attractive jewelry, while also being a useful item to anyone who needs assistance in an emergency. These are each "one of a kind" made by the club members. . E-mail: landhome@freeway.net
(5) The other is a collection of soaps made by the club members. The fragrance is the "Lily of the Valley," and is perfect for a gift at any time of the year.
