Great Experiences
A Celebration of Sorts
A Celebration of Sorts moved from Value Village Brooklyn Center to the old
Mervyn’s space at Southdale Sept. 18. This huge sort-a-thon, sponsored by Arc’s
Value Village and United Way Caring Connection, was amazing with 489 volunteers
providing 1,247 volunteer hours preparing merchandise for the Halloween
Boo-tique. Volunteers processed about 50,000 items! Arc board member Hunter
Sargent helped with volunteer orientations. The event generated strong media
interest with coverage by KARE 11, WCCO TV; LOVE 105; 104.1 JACK FM and 102.9
WLTE FM.
