The Fieldale Recreation Center and Pools will have an Overstock Merchandise Sale on Friday, December 1, and Saturday, December 2.
The fundraiser will be at the Fieldale Recreation Center from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Center member Michael Jarrett said the event is to help raise funds to “help keep the lights on” at the center.
“Fieldale has two swimming pools that are active, but it requires a lot of maintenance because they’re older pools, so they do fundraisers,” he said, adding the funds will also be used to pay ongoing expenses like electricity and taxes.
Jarrett said the organization recently finished another fundraiser, a yard sale.
“In fact, they’ve had several over the last several months,” he said, adding that he anticipates thousands will be raised during the fundraiser this weekend.
Jarrett stressed the fundraiser is a cash-only event. Credit or debit cards will not be accepted.
“There’ll be a lot of great items there. People can come and get Christmas gifts or whatever. It’s small appliances, mirrors, pictures, and a lot of clothing, towels,” he said.
Available items will also include throws, Christmas bows, blankets, leggings, robes, baby blankets, socks, gowns, men’s shirts, pajamas for men, women, and children, and other items.
Jarrett said the items would be in the price range of $2, $5, and $10, with no expensive items.
“It’s not like you go in and pay $59.95 or $105, or $22, it’s nothing like that,” he said. “They’re all small items, so it’s very, very low in price with great bargains.”
