QAWS :: Unwanted Items/Books

Don't forget to come along and join in the Scavenger Hunt (registration at 10.30) or just come along to the table top sale and BBQ from 1pm - 5pm.

And don't forget to bring your swimming things!!

Bumping this topic up and reminding everybody that we will be at Garvey's on Saturday from 10am onwards, in case any of you would like to drop any donations off for our Book Stall / Bake Sale / White Elephant Table.

Thank you :)

Thank you to everyone who has donated items so far! Anyone else wanting to drop off unwanted books, clothes, toys or household items can do so at the shelter up to Friday, or at Garvey's on Saturday morning from 10am.

There'll be beautiful jewelry, mozaic mirrors, hand-made cards, silk scarves, cakes, cookies, face-painting, kid's competitions and so much more! And it's indoors so no need to worry about the heat!

Hope to see you all there!!

Another gentle reminder as we are getting close to the date :)))

... my house in the Abu Hamour area can be a drop-off point too. Just contact me and I will pm with my number so we can make arrangements.

Thanks everybody! :)

thanks

Cant make it to the event, but I will drop off some items at the shelter.

Best of luck QAWS for event

A scavenger hunt is a competition where teams all meet up at one place, and everyone gets given the same list of 20 items to collect and 10 photos to take (for example, you could be asked to collect a cardboard box and take a photo of a pink car).

All the teams start together, and go off around Doha to collect their items and photos. The winning team will be the ones who collect the most things off of their list in 2 hours.

All the teams will be timed in case 2 teams get the same number of items, with the fastest team to return winning.

All teams must be a mximum of one car each and need to bring a car and a digital camera or camera phone. There are lots of things to find so it's a great day out for all ages.

... I pm'd you my mobile number. I have spread the word about the event with my daughters' schoolcolleagues and also on Facebook - the response is pretty positive already!

I can help setting up the stalls with you and pricing items from morning onwards, just say what time.

Hope to see many more people supporting this wonderful cause!!! :)))

Thank you to all the people who have already said they are coming!!

Please don't forget it's the scavenger hunt in the morning starting at 11am so please all grab you team (one car per team) and meet us there to register at 10.30 for a great laugh!!

We are accepting any donations for the sale - books, cakes, cookies, clothes, dvds/cds, household items, toys etc.

Everyone is invited and there will be things for all ages!!!

I have heard that, but I don't believe in that theory.

Seriously....

have you never heard the saying... if you have nothing nice to say, don't say it at all?

Don't ask what the meat is at the BBQ.

Hint, they have their own supply!

hope buy cookies from this event.

If need any help with BBQ count me in.

Rosie - anything would be greatly appreciated!! The table top sale is between 1pm and 5pm and you can either drop it down to the shelter before the day, bring it to Garvey's before 1pm or bring it with you when you come. If we could have it beforehand that would be great so we can sort things out on the table.

How it's worked in the past is that we don't generally price things, we just ask for a donation which we've found works really well :D The books & cakes will have prices though.

Alumnar - Sorry, we were at another table top sale yesterday and things were hectic!!! I'm moving house today so it might be best if I give you a call tomorrow. Can you PM me your number?

We have quite a few volunteers to man stalls but we could always do with an extra pair of hands. Or you could get a team together and join in with the scavenger hunt in the morning. It'll be a great laugh and we've already got quite a few teams together :D

I tried to call the number you put on the other topic today but no answer. Can I call you tomorrow on that same number? Want to discuss with you what needs to be done and start to send baking requests out :)

Rosie, maybe you could help us by minding a stall with second hand clothing? Just a suggestion :)

I will be moving into my villa next week and should be happy to donate lots of unwanted, really good clothes. Too much coming over from Australia. I have been watching this wonderful organisation from afar. I cannot help with cakes etc yet. Do I just bring down on the day?

Rosie

Alumnar you can put me down for a batch of gingerbread men and some chocolate chip muffins!!
