Junior League Thrift Shop Welcomes March with its Spring Fling Event

The Junior League of Summit Thrift Shop is hosting its Spring Fling Event Thursday, March 23rd through Saturday, March 25th at 37 DeForest Avenue in Summit.

The annual event will feature spring dresses, brightly colored clothing, jackets, boots and other accessories for men, women and children as well as seasonal home décor.

“We are looking forward to saying goodbye to winter by rolling out our spring inventory which will be refreshed daily. Come enjoy a spring shopping experience while getting amazing deals on new and gently used clothing accessories and home goods and also finding great prices on end-of-season winter clothing,” said League member and Shop Chair, Carly Spary (Summit).

“We are so thankful to our Junior League of Summit volunteers and community members whose generous donations have made this possible. Our space is fully stocked with beautiful, high quality clothing and housewares that will be featured at this event and help our customers to welcome in the spring season. But, we are able to offer these fantastic deals because of the generosity of all of those who donate to our Shop. If you are starting your “spring cleaning,” please think of donating your gently used clothing, accessories, housewares and toys to the Shop. It provides immediate impact by enabling our fellow community members to purchase necessities at steep discounts. And since all of the Shop proceeds fund the League’s other philanthropic ventures, your donations also directly enable us to continue the League’s projects, provides grants to local community partners and scholarships to local high school students. We truly could not do this without the support of our local community, so we thank you,” commented League President, Michelle DeMuth.
