Today I....

Today was a very fun, and yet very long, day for me. I was a "vendor" at the Dallastown Dollars for Scholar Fall Festival. It's apparently a VERY well attended school wide event that generates a fair amount of money for the school. It was held all around the High School. My table was set up in the lobby, with several other nice people; down the hall, in the gym, were lots of inflatables and fun things for the little kids; outside were food vendors and a Chinese Auction; around the corner from me, in the cafeteria, was a giant book sale (which, by the way, was $1/bag of books after 2pm - I scored BIG!)

It's fun to be able to help others!! I talked to a board member about meeting with them to discuss the possibility of using the Fundraising with Longaberger program.

All in all, it was a great day. I especially had fun introducing people to our new Pantry TLC line. Yum!!
