And there are some amazing items, including many handmade, one-of-a-kind pieces such as lap blankets, felted knitwear and jewelry; a variety of wine; candy and goodies (I spotted a box of chocolate-covered dried cherries); book collections; a Baldwin piano; items for kids; a beautiful vintage typewriter; a tour of Mission Point Lighthouse; assorted home décor items; gift certificates for Old Mission produce, flowers, classes, massages, stores and even a fishing trip – and so much more.
Old Mission Gazette donated an assortment of items from our sister site, the Old Mission Peninsula Store, including OMP bumper stickers, hats, photo prints from yours truly, a calendar, greeting cards and more.
Here is a small sampling of the items available to bid on. Stop by the library before tomorrow at 3 p.m.! If you have questions, feel free to call the library at (231) 223-7700.
SUPPORT YOUR INDEPENDENT LOCAL NEWSPAPER: I started Old Mission Gazette in 2015 because I felt a calling to provide the Old Mission Peninsula community with local news. After decades of writing for newspapers and magazines like the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Family Circle and Ladies' Home Journal, I really just wanted to write about my own community where I grew up on a cherry farm and raised my own family. So I started my own newspaper.
Because Old Mission Gazette is a "Reader Supported Newspaper" -- meaning it exists because of your financial support -- I hope you'll consider tossing a few bucks our way if I mention your event, your business, your organization or your news item, or if you simply love reading about what's happening on the OMP. In a time when local news is becoming a thing of the past, supporting an independent community newspaper is more important now than ever. Thank you so much for your support! -Jane Boursaw, Editor/Publisher, Old Mission Gazette
