Donation Daze – June 5th, 2021
(formally Dollar Daze)
As you are most likely aware, because of COVID-19, we are trying something a little different for our Donation Daze (formally Dollar Daze) event this year. We will be holding the event outside on Saturday June 5th with a rain date of Saturday June 12. It will be a one-day only event and will start at 11:00am and end at 4:00pm. The event will be held in the parking lot of The Institute for Perception, 7629 Hull Street Road in the Pocoshock Square Office Park. 7629 Hull St. Rd., is conveniently located near the intersection of routes 150 and 360 in Chesterfield County and does not front onto 360 but, rather, onto Pocoshock Way. There is an Apple Door Systems store on the corner at the light where you will make your turn onto Pocoshock Blvd.
If you are traveling E (towards Richmond city) on Route 360 (Hull St. Rd), you will turn right onto Pocoshock Blvd. If travelling W (away from the city), you will turn left. Then, turn left onto Pocoshock Way. Take the second or third left into the parking lot and walk down to where you will see the Donation Daze set-up. Here is a link to the building for those who would like to get turn-by-turn directions.
Donation Daze is an event when we make all the really nice, high quality yarn that has been donated to From the Heart available to our membership, for use in their personal projects, for a suitable donation. These are silks and other natural fibers that we cannot use in the commission of From the Heart’s mission. There is no suggested donation, and you will give whatever you consider to be a reasonable donation. We do hope people will be as generous as they have been in past years as every cent donated to From the Heart via Donation Daze is spent on acrylic yarn that we CAN use in the creation of items to be given to our recipients. It is a real win-win event. Please note that we cannot accept credit cards and cannot make change as you just pop your donation directly into the box.
The workshop will not be open on the day we hold this event so that all members, who want to, can attend.
