44th Shipley Shops a Success
|
|
As the last volunteers joined the dedicated men of Shipley’s physical plant and maintenance staff cleaning Yarnall Gym on Saturday, October 23rd, everyone felt a sense of a job well done and well enjoyed. This 44th annual Shipley Shops Gift and Boutique Show continued the long line of successes for the school’s annual fund-raiser. The final numbers are still being calculated, but it is clear that parents, alumni, students, staff, vendors, and the Main Line community would all consider Shop’s week to be a success. From the gala Preview Party to the delicious lunches by our very own Gators Caterers to the fashion shows, alumni and past parent teas, through to Family Fun Day, the Shops events were packed with Shipley friends and supporters. Shoppers responded enthusiastically to the variety of offerings and price points across all vendors, with Shipley’s own Shops (Collectibles, The Gallery, Green Thumb, The Pantry and The Raffle) enjoying outstanding success. Thank you to everyone—whether staff member, volunteer, shopper, or all three—who contributed to the achievements of the week and the support of the School. And now on to the Auction!
