The 175th Tahlequah FUMC Commemorative Year Celebration Sale
“The 175th Tahlequah FUMC Commemorative Year Celebration Sale” is set to kick off in the Atrium following worship on Sunday, December 2. This estate sale is designed to pay down our building debt with all proceeds going to the mortgage principal. At mid-September our debt was $559,305.30, with a daily interest payment of $61.50.
This is a once in a lifetime sale! We are seeking valued items that will provide big sale revenues. Suggestions include: clothing valued at $50 or more per item, purses in excellent condition, dishes, pottery, baskets, glassware, vases, crystal, silver, furniture, mirrors, lamps, table cloths, linens, quilts, kitchen items, Christmas décor, jewelry, musical instruments, figurines, statuary, artwork, frames, old records, hard cover coffee table books, toys, games, athletic equipment, tools in good condition, cars, trucks, campers, boats, and trailers. Arrangements can be made to move large items to the church for the sale.
David Morrison is donating his minimally used golf clubs and NSU golf bag. The clubs include Cobra Irons with Ping Metal Woods and several utility clubs, which when new were valued at over $1,000.
We will not accept: electronics, magazines, paperbacks, crafts, or appliances.
