Santa Joins Christmas in July Celebration
at IMHS Second Chance Thrift Shop Saturday July 28 Super Sale Benefits Shoppers and Animals
Santa Claus will make an appearance at the Saturday, July 28th Christmas in July celebration at the Second Chance Thrift Shop on 285 in Pine Junction. All sales benefit the homeless animals who receive care from Intermountain Humane Society (IMHS).
“Our Christmas in July event is a great opportunity to enjoy some free Christmas cookies and stock up on holiday decorations and a wide assortment of household items at half the already-low standard price of the Second Chance Thrift Shop,” stated Marta Anderson, Shelter Director, “Christmas is a time to spread joy, and our half-price sale will give that to shoppers and the homeless animals who are in such need in our mountain community.”
The Christmas in July celebration will run--rain or shine--from 9 am until 4 pm in the parking lot of the Second Chance Thrift Shop and IMHS, which is in the log building on 285 in Pine Junction (just south of the traffic light at the intersection with route 126). Santa will be available to greet shoppers from 11 to 1pm and is available for pictures with pets or kids for an extra donation to IMHS.
“We know smart shoppers grab bargains early in the year for their loved ones, and they’ll not only be sure to find something for everyone on their list at the Christmas in July celebration but they’ll also be showing their love for the dogs and cats served by IMHS,” said Anderson, “And we hope some shoppers will open their hearts and adopt an animal in need to really make this celebration special.”
The Intermountain Humane Society is a private, non-profit organization that receives no government funding and relies on donations and community support to serve its mission; IMHS is open every day, with special evening hours on Wednesday. The Second Chance Thrift Store is open Tuesday-Sunday from 10:30am- 6pm. The IMHS adoption center is located downstairs and the Second Chance Thrift Shop upstairs at 67318 US Hwy 285 S in Pine Junction.
