ACC’s Fourth Annual “No Fleas, Please” Flea Market Set for Oct. 23

Shoppers browse the numerous tables full of secondhand household items, electronics, books, clothes and more at the 2009 ACC flea market.

Mark those calendars and get ready for some of the best bargains on St. John!

The 4th annual “No Fleas, Please” Flea Market will be at the Winston Wells Ball field on Saturday, October 23, starting at 10 a.m.

The event will benefit the St. John Animal Care Center.

Clearing out closets? Refreshing villa furniture? Then help the ACC raise money by donating furniture, household items, building materials, electronics, books, toys, clothes and more. Get rid of stuff today by bringing items directly to the shelter (Tuesday through Saturday), or call to make arrangements for a pickup.

Interested in selling personal items? Rent a space at the event to set up a sales area! A $25 advance donation reserves a 10’x12’ space on the field. Please call in advance for space availability.

The “No Fleas Please” Flea Market is one of three annual fundraising events sponsored by the ACC. Each event raises critical funds needed to continue shelter operations. For more information, contact St. John ACC at 774-1625 or stjacc@islands.vi.
