You might wish to take advantage of this offer especially if you have a large family and/or if you plan on coming in the beginning of the evening when the hungry crowd lines up just in time for supper. There is no savings being offered, only convenience.

                                     DONATIONS NEEDED!!!
The GROCERY BOOTH is always in need of non-perishable food items to be offered as prizes. This booth is also 100% profit...thanks to those who make donations. Should you wish to make a donation please leave it in the church near the statue of St. Joseph.
For those of you who like to bake, the CAKE BOOTH will be needing many, many baked goods to give away as prizes throughout the week of the bazaar. It seems we never have enough...so be sure to set some time aside, the week of June 6 - 11, to do some baking.
Trinity Ladies Club will once again organize the COUNTRY STORE, located in the four car garage behind the rectory. With the help of EVERY parishioner who can make a craft - sew, knit, crochet, paint, make floral arrangements..wreaths...jams...jellies  preserves.. or make anything we can sell, we will be able to reach our goal of 100% profit. TLC asks that everyone "SPREAD THE WORD" and approach those in our parish family that you know of and ask if they would be willing to make just one item that can be sold at the bazaar. Donations may be dropped off at the rectory at your convenience. All donations will certainly be appreciated. The only used items that are accepted are pieces of JEWELRY, used but in perfect condition.

                               BAZAAR SPONSORS
A donation of $50.00 entitles you, as a 2005 BAZAAR SPONSOR  to a professionally printed sign in your family name or in your business name as well as a special bulletin and flyer to the parish acknowledging your support.
