(l. to r.) Bianca Ochoa, Kristin Madsen and Kathryn Salfen at the west table at
Save Mart. Bianca was the winner of the very first John Moran scholarship
in 2005. Kristin was quite tenacious in selling. She developed a new
technique for approaching the potential buyer and it really worked. At 3
PM, the planned closing of the sale, we still had a few items unsold.
These super sellers had the choice of closing down and splitting up the
remaining items for their families, or to continue. They chose to "sell
out" and they did. Within 20 minutes they had dropped prices a bit and
cleared out everything, even the last couple of bags of prepared samples.
Not shown in this photo is Kayla Neilsen, another successful and aggressive
seller.
This is the East table of baked goods.
The shows some of the variety, but not nearly the quantity of delicious goods
made for the sale. At the top of the photo is a couch that is covered with
pies. The end table is holding a few too. Stacked in another part of
the office are another 15 dozen cookies and other items. This does not
include the large amount that was to be delivered on the day of the sale.
Galt is so lucky to have so many willing volunteers.
This lovely hand decorated cake was done by 14 year old Kirsten Neilsen.
She
deserves three gold stars.
The results
The John Moran Scholarship fund only needed $850 to fulfill the three awards.
Our goal was to earn a profit of $1000. The weather was cool, but
otherwise perfect. Being only two days before Christmas, the store was
very busy and we had a super supply of people walking by. The tables had
plenty of baked goods to offer. The Galt High School students were great
helpers and enough were available to make this a success. People were very
generous in donations for this worthwhile effort.
$1234.05 profit
