Letter: Big rummage and fundraising bake sale for play area

Letter to the editor

By on Tue, May 27, 2008

We’re having a large bake sale from which all proceeds will go to fund the building of a new play area for the kids in our community.  There will also be a big rummage sale - lots of great items!!

It’s on Sunday June 1st - from 9am until 1pm - at the Pillar Ridge Mobile Home Community Clubhouse on Culebra Lane in Moss Beach (right behind the Half Moon Bay Airport - parallel to highway 1). There’s plenty of parking and an indoor space too.

I’ve found that quite a lot of people who live here on the coast are unaware of the existence of our little community - or have no clear idea of who we are that live here. We’re a varied bunch - lots of interesting and different people, many who help support the greater community. I know a few post on these very boards!

There’s a lot of kids here and many are not able to be taken (for many reasons) over to the wonderful Moss Beach park, or to the other parks in the area. We have a very old, decrepit play structure at the moment which desperately needs upgraded. Therefore, any support with this venture will be much appreciated. Any and all donations of rummage/baked goods will be received greatfully and all proceeds will go to the play area! If anyone has any free time to distribute flyers or help out on the day, that would be wonderful!

Are there maybe any local musicians out there, willing to donate an hour of time to provide entertainment? I’m sure with the generosity and inventiveness of the folk in this area we’ll have a great event. Thanks in advance for your help.
