Jean Groseclose and Mike Cross, Co-Chairpersons have just spent three twelve hour days preparing for this event and this will be the fourth such day as the hall must be clean and empty when the sale is ended. Jean and Mike have chaired this event for several years now and they and their dedicated volunteers deserve much credit for their hard work.
