Christmas Market 2008
Want to get involved?
Join in the spirit of camaraderie!
We need volunteers to help out with all aspects of this year’s
Christmas Market and Auction, whether you're new to the church or have been
coming for years, volunteering at the market is a great meet or re-connect
with fellow parishioners. We have different roles that can fit different
schedules -- from an occasional free hour to a more substantial involvement.
Look for the calls for volunteers in the Redeemer News or call the
Church Office (617 566 7679) to join in anytime. Planning starts in January,
so it's never too early, and it's never too late -- there's always lots to do on
the big days (Friday December 5th, and Saturday December 6th), from staffing
the admissions table to selling Christmas trees. Committees include:
Greens
Calling all Martha Stewarts. Craft
one-of-a-kind wreaths, pot some paperwhites, use your creative side to make
decorative Christmas greens -- one of the Market's biggest draws.
Consignors
Have some ideas of what you would like to
buy at the market? If you have an eye for unusual gift items and knack for
finding them, consider joining the Consignors Committee as they seek out
specialty vendors of everything from gourmet foods to stationary to jewelry.
Auction
Learn more about the hidden talents of your
fellow parishioners as you help solicit auction donations, use your wit and
verbal skills to help write the booklet, and apply your presentation skills
to makes displays and slides for the items.
Decorations
Deck the halls with garlands, lights,
centerpieces and more -- Set the tone for the big event, while exercising
your creative flair and ladder climbing skills.
Crafts
More Martha Stewarts? Lend you talents with
a paint brush or use your glue gun skills to join in group workshops for
making decoupage, decorative topiaries, and more.
Baked Goods
For those with culinary talents, we need
special home-baked or store bought items to stock our Bake Sale Table.
