St. Edward decorations sale marks 15 years
The 15th annual holiday decorations sale sponsored by the women’s organization of Granville St. Edward the Confessor Church will take place Saturday, Nov. 1 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the church, 785 Newark-Granville Road.
More than 100 volunteers spend the week before the sale transforming the parish hall into a winter wonderland filled with thousands of gently used Christmas decorations – from ornaments and wreaths to trees, collectibles and more.
The donated items are collected throughout the year and stored in Marty’s Attic, a building created specifically for this purpose and named in honor of parishioner Marty Puckett, who believed that everyone should be able to afford to decorate for the Christmas season.
All proceeds benefit the charitable works of the Women of St. Edward (WOSE). For more information, contact santas.attic4st.eds@gmail.com.
