Contributed by Kimberly Kellar
Valley Charities is thrilled to invite the community to a Customer Appreciation Day at the Turn-A-Leaf Thrift Store, located at 400 N Yenlo Street, Wasilla, AK 99654. The event is scheduled for Saturday, June 8th, from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and promises an array of activities and special offers designed to thank our valued customers and support our ongoing community initiatives.
During this special event, attendees can enjoy a delicious hot dog barbecue while browsing the store’s wide selection of items. In a unique twist, shoppers will have the opportunity to "Draw Your Own Discount" on one item, with potential savings of up to 75%. This exciting feature allows customers to engage directly with our pricing, adding an element of fun to their shopping experience.
In collaboration with the Mat-Su Animal Shelter, the day will also feature "Name Your Price" pet adoptions, focusing exclusively on dogs. This initiative aims to find loving homes for pets in need and encourages community members to consider adding a new furry friend to their family.
For our younger guests, the Turn-A-Leaf Thrift Store is also the place to be for engaging educational activities. Children are invited to sign up for this year’s Backyard Birding Challenge. Each participant will receive a journal and goodie bag to kickstart their bird-watching adventures. Additionally, Shannon Jensen from the Alaska WildBird Rehabilitation Center will be on-site with fascinating bird artifacts, such as skulls, eggs, and feathers. Shannon will provide valuable information about local bird species and discuss opportunities for visiting the center in Houston, AK.
Valley Charities is proud to organize this event as a way to give back to the community and enhance the shopping experience at Turn-A-Leaf Thrift Store. We are committed to supporting local causes and continuing our partnership with the Mat-Su Animal Shelter and the Alaska WildBird Rehabilitation Center. Join us for a day of fun, education, and community spirit as we celebrate our customers and the local wildlife that makes Alaska unique.
