We will accept the following donated items:

Outdoor equipment - bikes, skis, and sports equipment (child and adult) in working condition
Gently used soft and hard goods in good condition - helmets, goggles, ski pants & jackets, gloves, athletic footwear in good condition
General gear - hydration packs, headlamps, camping gear, etc.

Please label items with a suggested price and deliver the items to the M.A.C. after school on Friday, September 20 or on Saturday, September 21 between 3:00 - 5:00 PM. Proceeds will go to The McGillis School. Gear that is not sold at the event may be reclaimed or will be donated.
