The Humboldt Hospital Auxiliary is ready to kick-start Christmas.
The all-volunteer organization is inviting the entire community to its
Poke & Peek Thrift Shop for a Christmas Open House.
The free event will take place from noon to 4 p.m. Saturday, November 14,
at 3200 Bengochea Circle in Sage Heights.
Volunteers have been saving Christmas items all year long in preparation,
and Saturday’s event will give them a chance to finally showcase
the holiday wares.
Shoppers will enjoy an abundance of holiday décor, gifts for every
member of the family, and plenty of stocking stuffers.
The Poke & Peek is the sole source of income for the Humboldt Hospital
Auxiliary, an all-volunteer organization distinguished by members’
pink coats.
The “pink ladies” and their gentlemen counterparts provide
service in the various departments at Humboldt General Hospital as well
as at the Poke & Peek where volunteers sort, price, display and sell
clothing, toys, books and household items.
Each week, the Poke & Peek Thrift Shop is open Wednesdays from 10 a.m.
to 2 p.m. and Fridays and Saturdays from noon to 4 p.m.
The Poke & Peek Thrift Shop’s regular hours are from 10 a.m.
to 2 p.m. Wednesdays and from noon to 4 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays. Donations
are gladly accepted during the store’s hours of operation; receipts
are provided upon request.
A donation drop box is also located to the west of the store entrance for
after-hours donations.
