5. St. Thomas’ Christmas Market News
A small group of ladies have been meeting to plan the Christmas Market for 2024. The group has a couple of announcements/reminders before the break into summer.
1. The group has decided to add a new element to the Christmas Market this year – Vendors. The group would like to reach out to the congregation and invite any vendors you may know that would like to participate in the Christmas Market. Please note that the vendors would be located in the Loft to use that space as well. The vendors would pay a fee of $25 for a 4’ table and 25% of their sales would be donated back to the church. The vendor would be asked to donate an item to the silent auction table. If you know of a vendor, please contact Kim Stephenson or Cheryl Drumm by July 15th. All vendors will be approved by the Christmas Market planners.
2. Reminders for Home Canning/Preserves
a. Please process your preserves in a suitable canner to guarantee the seal.
b. Please price your own delights. Consider opening one jar as a taster. Lezlie Miller is available to help with pricing.
c. Any unsold items will be returned to the owner.
d. There will be canning classes throughout the summer for those who would like to help make bread and butter pickles, dill pickles and chili sauce perhaps some jams or jellies.
