Grace Community Church 61st Annual Country Store, Boulder City, Nevada
Boulder City, Nevada--- Grace Community Church will be presenting its 61st Annual Country Store, Friday, 10/23 from 8AM to 6PM and Saturday, 10/24/2009 from 8AM to 12Noon in beautiful, clean, green, Boulder City, Nevada.
According to co-chairman Don Walker, the event was started around 1947 by the Grace Community Church Women's Association in Boulder City, Nevada to raise money for mission projects and to pay for improvements to the church. Since that time it has become the major fundraiser for the congregation. Last year the Country Store raised about $25,000.00 according to Walker.
About 100 volunteers starting putting the items for sale in Boulder City, Nevada out last Sunday, 10/18/2009. One of the more unique items this year is a medieval helmet that is a bar. Other more conventional items include, furniture for all rooms of the house, garden supplies, baked goods, vintage books, costume jewelry, appliances, small and large, men's, women's and children's clothes and much much more. The rack which holds men's trousers is about 25 feet long! People come from as far away as California to buy items at the Country Store in Boulder City, Nevada.
At the end of the sale all of the left over merchandise is donated to the Salvation Army. But before this happens the less fortunate may pick any items they want for free.
This is just another reason why Boulder City, Nevada was chosen as one of the best places to retire to in the United States according to a recent article in Money magazine. It is also one of the reasons, I am proud to call Boulder City, Nevada, home.
