FACC Yard Sale on Saturday, Aug. 31



by Susan Palmes-Dennis

For anyone in the market for cheap, quality goods, the yard sale sponsored by the Filipino American Community of the Carolinas Inc. (FACC) on Saturday, Aug. 31 at 2151 Wynbourne Drive in Gastonia, North Carolina 28056 may be right up their alley.

This was confirmed by FACC president Muffy Therrien after the Aug. 24 regular meeting of the group’s board of directors held at the Asian Library. The big sale starts at 6 am. 


Therrien said proceeds of the yard sale will help fund the FACC Gala scheduled November 16 at Hilton Hotel.  This year’s Gala night will hand out additional awards, prizes and recognition to participants. 

Assorted home goods, kitchen, art works and many more are available for purchase at the yard sale. Therrien asked the FACC members and the community to donate used books and other items of general use to the FACC yard sale.  

For those interested to donate and give please contact any of your officers and area representatives near you.

A list of FACC officers one can contact include the following: Muffy Theirren, Gastonia County; Dorena Reynolds, Charlotte area; Emlyn Burgess Concord area; Ron Dennis, Huntersville and Cornelius; Gina Minnick, Gastonia area; and representatives all over Charlotte like Jlanani Wallace, Marissa Borja, Marjorie Ray, Liza Talyer, Rose Talley and Lulu Land. 

In a related development the search for Mr. and Mrs. Gala Night, Miss Teen Gala and Best in International Gown are among the highlights in the coming 32nd Gala at Hilton Charlotte University Place on November 16.  

Tickets are still sold at $65 and are non refundable.  Gala tickets are now available for sale and interested buyers can contact any member of the FACC board of directors near them.  The sitting arrangement is on a first paid basis for those wishing to be seated near the stage.
