Treasures in the Trunk a Hit

On Saturday, February 17 the San Marco Columbiettes held their winter Treasures in the Trunk Sale for the benefit of local charities. The event was a great success as vendors selling “Treasures” and shoppers filled the San Marco Church parking lot. The weather was perfect as shoppers strolled up and down the rows of vendors searching for that special something. Vendors reported very good sales, and shoppers were thrilled with the wide array of items for sale. The Columbiettes had an amazing display of clothing, jewelry, and bric-a-brac, a homemade baked goods sale, coffee station, water and soft drinks and delicious hot dogs and hamburgers prepared by the Knights of Columbus. The 50/50 drawing was won by vendor and local Marco Island resident, Bill Coolidge. The Columbiettes were extremely grateful when he very generously donated his winnings of $600 back to the Columbiettes Aux. 6344, thereby contributing to the great success of this charity fundraiser. 

The Columbiettes thank the Knights of Columbus, vendors, shoppers, and volunteer students from the Marco Island Academy for their support. The next Treasures in the Trunk Sale fundraiser will be held on Saturday, November 16, 2024. Save the date!
