Topic: Clothing Exchange Guidelines
Hi everyone!

I wanted to let you all know about the clothing exchange that will be taking place on June 12th at the OH conference in Rosemont, IL. 

If you have clothes that you would like to pass along to others please bring them to the conference in Rosemont on June 12.  Drop off begins at 10 am.  I will be there along with others to help sort them out.

If you can remember a few things:

1.  Please make sure all clothing is WASHED prior to drop off. 
2.  If you can sort them into trash bags by size before dropping off, that will be a big help.
3.  Exchange will open at 2:00 pm.
4.  People do not have to bring clothing to be able to take clothing home.
5.  Please bring your own bags to transport your "treasures" home with you.
6.  There is no extra charge for ANY of this!  It is included in your ticket!

Thanks!  I am looking forward to making lots of new friends and I hope to see you there!

 

Tell someone that you love them!

I know I am looking forward to this whole event and helping with the clothing exchange!  It will be so much fun to meet everyone that comes to exchange and see the looks on their faces when they come to get their goodies.  I am working with a group of the best ladies around, we will have a ball!  Looking forward to it!

Thank you for volunteering.  It is very nice of you to dedicate your time to such an event.  You all are very special people and deserve a huge high five.  I could not imagine just how much hard work you will be putting into this exchange and hope that it runs smoothly.  I look forward to meeting you and exchanging some clothing myself. 

You are truly appreciated and thank you so much for your time.

The beauty of a woman is not seen through what she wears. It is seen through how she carries herself and the way she doesn’t allow herself to settle. Don’t ever let anyone take for granted the beauty that is within you. Stand firm and know that you’re a wonderful person. Always remember your value and respect yourself. I’m so blessed to have you in my life.  Sometimes we all need to be reminded how special we really are!

That was really nice of you to say, and very true!  These volunteers are the heart of our OH events, and we are very grateful to them.

I have lots of new friends, and I haven't even met them yet! I'm really looking forward to the Chicago event.

Sincerely,
Kim

A big big THANK YOU to all you volunteers! It is definitely hard work to pull one of these off and at this magnitude I am sure we cannot give you near the credit you will deserve! But we sure are thankful to you!

Please help us say a BIG thank you to the following people by leaving a comment in this thread!

They will be organizing the Chicago Event Clothing Exchange! These busy ladies will be receiving & sorting clothing, as well as hosting the exchange table at the event.  A huge amount of hard work goes into making this a smooth operation.
