I don't have any fancy artwork like Christine, but wanted to get some feedback for the Yard Sale this Saturday (9/26).
The church is relying on the youth group to help out with the sales (haggling skills preferred) due the language barrier. In which case I think it would be great to have a price guideline. The toughest part is coming up with that "reasonable initial" price when the visitor asks. So I started a spreadsheet containing the items I saw collected on Sunday. Feel free to take a look and add to it. The "pig" picture (on the right) should link to the spreadsheet.
Also, there was talk about a raffle for service the youth group could provide the congregation. The raffle tickets will be sold for $1 per category and the winner will chosen at the end of the yard sale. Below is a list of what we came up with on Sunday. Please add any other ideas.
- Wash car (could have multiple one by offering a winner per month ie. Oct. Nov. Dec.)
- Vacuum house
- Cook a meal
- Create a musical CD by the YG
- Special art (framed) by YG
- Mowing the lawn
- Raking the lawn (not included w/ mowing. :P)

how about church clean-up?
oooo OR a sunday lunch prepared by the youth?
how can that be "raffled" away? the whole church wins. it's like the church paying the youth group to clean up the church.
oh. well, its a good thought!
wow... just realized, this is tomorrow. any more brilliant ideas? are we the only two who checks this blog? any volunteers to make these raffles? :P does it even matter? nobody visits or for that matter, check these comment boxes. LOL....
