Treasures Thrift Shop
We’re recruiting volunteers (in-store and at-home) for Treasures. Whether you have one hour a week or as much as a day, we’d love to hear from you! Treasures is open on Wednesdays 10 am - 2 pm and Saturdays 10 am - 3 pm.
History
In 2018-19, Treasures celebrated 50 years of service to our community. Founded by Mildred MacDonald in 1968, and reinvigorated in 1993 by the efforts of Ginger Eliasberg, Treasures has always been staffed by a group of dedicated, hard-working volunteers from St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church and the surrounding community.
