Harvest Bazaar November 2
It's time to put this on your calendar...The annual Harvest Bazaar is on Saturday, November 2nd, open 10:30 to 1:00 at the Presbyterian church in Soda Springs! It is a Free-Will Offering for the dinner.
We have so much fun offering this to our community each year. It's worth the drive if coming from out of town. Fill your tummy with a Thanksgiving style full-course turkey dinner. Save room for pie for dessert! There's plenty of seating in the place for the entire group, whether it's family, friends, co-workers, etc. Work clothes will fit in just fine. If you don't have time to stay to eat, we have Take-Out to the rescue (call 208-547-3771). It's perfect for treating the people you care about that have limited mobility, or for treating the person who is so very busy this weekend and needs a well deserved break from the kitchen.
Side booths offer homemade baked goods, candy, crafts. There's a Silent Auction table, and a 50/50 raffle table, too!
