The Exchange will re-open Friday, November 24th, from 10am – 4pm; launching our Grand Opening Weekend, November 24-25-26. We will be serving hot dogs and cider at lunch time, and making junk-art craft projects with the kids all weekend!
We are a little worried about traffic and parking! When visiting The New Exchange, please follow signs and the direction of traffic helpers. Parking will be available at The Grange and at Island Excavating. We open at 10 am Friday, Saturday and Sunday. No early birds please!
We will not be accepting donations without reservations (see below) but we will be selling everything—and we are going to have some GREAT STUFF! THESE SHELVES WILL BE STOCKED! Don’t miss it…
RESERVATIONS
We’re calling it the “Tsunami” because that’s exactly what we are expecting when we open the doors to donations. A tidal event from your basement/garage/barn to our new building. We are excited about it—but we also have to manage it. The answer: technology!
Through the end of December, we are ONLY ACCEPTING DONATIONS WITH A RESERVATION. You can make a reservation online, by going to our website, and clicking the big “Drop-off Reservations” button on the home page. www.exchangeorcas.org
