Hand-Me-Down Holidays

Past event
Nov 25, 2023, 9 AM to 3 PM

Welcome back for the second year of Fairfax Parks and Recreation's Hand-Me-Down Holiday Event! Due to the overwhelming interest in this event, we have decided to try it again! This year, it will be Saturday, November 25th from 9:00am-3:00pm at the Fairfax Community Center on Main Street.

Event:
For those new to this event, what is a "hand-me-down holiday?" This is a town event to help clean out those playrooms, and help others bring home some great new to them presents. The intent of this event is to help community families keep the cost of holidays low while bringing home gifts for the kids. All items will be free the day of the event.

Donations:
Donations will be accepted Monday and Tuesday November 20, and 21 from 5:00pm-8:00pm. Donation drop off will be in the basement of the Community Center. Donations accepted: gently used/ in good condition kid's toys, books, and clothes.

Volunteers:
Last year was so successful we are planning ahead in search of volunteers that would like to help set up, take down, and/or transport items to new locations the following week. Please sign up if you're interested. The more hands we have the more we can hand down. Link to signup: https://forms.gle/zHnjdh3eCFMzvQbcA

Non-Profits:
If you work for a non-profit, or state agency that would like to be considered for the remainer of items after the event, please email the address below. We would like to get these items to those in need. Please spread the word and let us know.

If you have any additional questions, suggestions, or thoughts- please email activities@fairfax-vt.gov
