The ever-optimistic member volunteers at Assistance League® of Diablo Valley Way Side Inn Thrift Shop at the Way Side Inn, located at 3521 Golden Gate Way, in Lafayette, refute the theory that “Christmas comes but once a year.” To that end, they invite you to attend the annual Christmas in July event, scheduled to begin on Tuesday, July 19, at 10 a.m., and conclude on Saturday, July 30, at 3 p.m.

As you enter Lafayette’s well-known landmark, you will be greeted by figures of angels, Santas, teddy bears and festive statues that line the shelves. A closer glance will reveal miniature trees, garlands, stockings, sleds, and various-sized ornaments that promise to grace your mantle. A selection of baskets, mugs, and pillows (don’t forget the gift wrap) will complete this most enjoyable task

Your generous donations and timely purchases at the Thrift Shop, Assistance League of Diablo Valley’s primary fundraiser, provide the greatest gift for those in our community who are vulnerable, Caring and Commitment in Action.
