The SWAP AND SHOP is a lively event where participants donate up to 6 high-quality items. For each item donated shoppers receive a poker chip which can be used to "purchase" items from the racks and stacks. Additional chips can be purchased for $10.00 each. A silent auction will also be held featuring items such as quilts, new goods, designer shoes, jewelry and more. All monies raised support our Scholarship Trust.
The 2025 event was a great success, and everyone who attended had a wonderful time trying on clothes, shopping, swapping and spending their poker chips.
