St. Jude Spring Craft Fair and Fashion Show
Over 50 handcrafted booths, Raffle prizes including Cancun - Saturday, March 28th, 9am to 3pm - $2 admission, kids 12 & under free

St. Jude is planning their 2nd annual Spring Craft Fair to benefit St. Jude Catholic School in New Lenox. Accompanying the craft fair will be a fashion show at 1pm featuring a local boutique. Raffle prizes including Cancun accommodations will be available throughout the day. A kids “make-and-take craft workshop” will also be available for younger children for a small fee.
The show will be held Saturday, March 28th, 2015 from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at St. Jude School, 241 W. Second Avenue in New Lenox. Admission to this show is $2.00 per person, and children 12 and under are free.
“This show has been tailored to include vendors that appeal to those of all ages,” says Erica Fitterer, Spring Craft Fair Chairperson and parent volunteer. “Why go to a mall and buy an accessory or item that many other people will also purchase, when you have the opportunity to purchase one-of-a-kind and unique gifts? Supporting local small businesses while also supporting St. Jude School is a wonderful way to spend the day on March 28th.”

“We look forward to the Spring Craft & Vendor Show becoming a great tradition at St. Jude! Not only will our students and school directly benefit, our mission continues to grow as we build community while living our faith,” noted Luanne Watson, Principal of St. Jude School.
