“You Drive, We Unload” Service Makes Donating Easy
Spring cleaning?  Don’t forget the QCSO.  The Quad City Symphony Orchestra’s (QCSO) Volunteers for Symphony (VfS) aren’t done yet with this season.  Even after one of the most successful seasons in QCSO history VfS still has the energy to put on its 33rd Annual Second Fiddle Sale, the Quad Cities biggest and best rummage sale.  The sale is June 15-18 at the former Moline Public Library at 504 17th Street.

Donations that support area youth music education reaching 10,000 students each year begin with “You Drive, We Unload” on Saturday, May 14 from 8:00 a.m. – noon.  The first 100 to drop off donations will receive 50% off coupons for up to two Quad City Bank & Trust Riverfront Pops:  The Eagles Greatest Hits tickets.  The donation drive continues May 24-June 11 Tuesdays 4:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. and Thursdays and Saturdays 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.

Virtually any items are accepted except for entertainment centers and electronics, console TVs, skis and ski equipment, mattresses, cribs, car seats, treadmills, large appliances, pianos and organs, pool tables and anything with propane or household cleaners.

The sale begins with the Preview Party on Wednesday, June 15 from 6:00 - 9:00 p.m.  For $10 you get first pick of the best items.  New this year - book your ticket online in advance and save $2.00.  The Preview Party ticket includes food and beverage and the first pick of the best items.

The sale continues with free admission Thursday, June 16-Saturday, June 18, Thursday 8:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m., Friday, 8:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. and Saturday 8:00 a.m. – noon.  On Saturday all items are half price all day.

“This is a fun event that everyone enjoys and has stood the test of time.  We are delighted about how the community donates some of the best items and I’m particularly proud of the amazing hard work and dedication of our volunteers who pull this off,” commented Benjamin Loeb, QCSO executive director.

The 33rd Annual Second Fiddle Sale welcomes and appreciates donations and the sale is a reliably fun day out for everyone in the family.  All donation drop offs and sale events are at the former Moline Public Library, 504 17th Street, Moline, IL.
