Community Engagement

Hi there green beans,

The Town of New Glasgow's Climate Committee is getting ready for their second used clothing sale, but this time we're adding some pizzazz....a fashion show!

Members of our committee and maybe some members of the Town Council will don some gently used clothing and walk the runway, proudly displaying their finery, We are also going to offer small household items; items that you can easily carry, so kitchen items, ornaments, jewlery, handbags, wallets rtc. The only criteria - is it easy to pick up?

We will be setting up a table at the Farmers Market and people can drop off their treasures, and we will be able to drop off at Glasgow Square at certain times. Stay tuned to social media. we will be advertising a lot.

The actual event will be at Glasgow Square on September 28th. Please join us, proceeds will go toward tree planting, keeping New Glasgow beautiful!

There are so many reasons to buy used clothing or share clothing with friends but some just shy away. The reason people used to go to second hand stores was because they couldn't afford the high prices in the shops but thay's not the case now. Now we encourage shopping at second hamd stores to change the trajectory we are on; now we simply don't want to spendthe high prices in the shops. There is no stigma to shopping in used stores, it is now trendy to do so. So come out and help us circulate and have some fun as well.
