Huron Shores United Church in Grand Bend is hosting a special Fall Free Store event on Friday, October 18th, and Saturday, October 19th. The Free Store will be open from 6:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. on Friday and from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on Saturday.
One of two event Coordinators, Joanne Barry explains the Free Store.
Everyone is invited to come by, browse through the selection, and take home items they can use, completely free of charge! There will be a wide range of fall and winter clothing for the whole family, as well as small household items, books, and more.
Even though the Grand Bend area is seen as wealthy, there are still many people in need. The Free Store helps support the community while also reducing waste going to landfills.
The event will take place at Huron Shores United Church, located at 25 Main Street, Grand Bend.
