Today, in an effort to promote our Child Hunger Ends Here rummage sale, my friend, Angie and I, took our lunch hour to head out and put up some signs.
Two hours later, I drove down the street where the sale is and all of the signs were down. And not like down on the ground.
Gone.
To say I was livid would be an understatement.
Turns out that, despite having the blessing of the city, permit office and parks and rec office to do the charity sale, I didn't have the blessing of the sign gods. Also know as the maintenance crew.
And so down the signs came.
So in the absence of clear directional signs, I'll remind Minnesota readers once more:
25+ Families Rummage Sale
100% Proceeds to Feeding America through ConAgra Foods Child Hunger Ends Here
Saturday, May 22, 2010
8:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
Highland Park Shelter
Most things priced 25 cents to $2
(that will be the one at 1227 Montreal, but don't look for the address, there isn't one. Instead, it is on the north side of the street from the domed building that is Circus Juventas. Head to the back of the park right next to the playground with the giant slide. You'll know you are in the right spot by the noticeable absence of signs.)
However, whether or not you spot me there seems questionable.
Afterall, I may be imprisoned for grand sign taper-y.
