[Namron] Yard sale to benefit our tornado-affected populace

[Cynthia Teague]

Oh, a clothes rack -- that's great.  Can you drop it off?  Or just bring
it, if you are coming to help on Friday.  I plan to start putting things
out at 7:30; the sale will run from 8-2 both days.

(If you're not coming on Friday and need me to pick it up, let me know.)
