Description

  It’s Holiday Fair time!  Once again, we have to be creative due to the Covid-19 pandemic.  Last year we entered into the world of “on-line” fairs.  It was a learning experience for us all, but happily, a successful one for our parish.  So, here we go again!  Beginning on Sunday, November 21 and running through Saturday, November 27 we will be offering an on-line fair


    On our website there will be three different categories: Silent Auction, Items for Sale, and Raffle Tickets. We will be advertising the Fair through printed and social media ad buys. Your business will appear as a sponsor on all Fair website. A special thank you will be placed on our Facebook page recognizing your business and tagging your page. This will be an excellent advertising opportunity. Very likely, the winner of your donated prize will bring extra people to your business as well!


As we did last year, we will again be strongly encouraging our parishioners and fair participants to support the local businesses that contribute to this event.  Those businesses will be listed by name in our mailings, our weekly bulletin, and on our social media sites.  Our hope is that your generosity to us will be returned to you in the form of increased sales and goodwill.


We are seeking merchant donations of Gift Certificates and/or Merchandise to be listed under “Silent Auction,” “For Sale,” or “Raffles.”  Contributions of money are also most welcome and will be appropriately acknowledged on all fair websites.
