SHOW DESCRIPTION:
The Merry Wives of Windsor or Sir John Falstaff and the Merry Wives of Windsor is a comedy by William Shakespeare first published in 1602, though believed to have been written in or before 1597. Meet the rotund rascal Sir John Falstaff and the wise wives of Windsor in one of Shakespeare’s most raucous comedies. With an ego as big as his voracious appetite, Falstaff conspires to woo the two wealthiest married ladies in town and pocket their riches. However, Mistress Ford and Mistress Page devise a scheme of their own to teach him a well-deserved lesson in Wooing 101. Join us and feast on a hilariously magnificent treat of monogamously artful deceit.

Arise Church Barn Sale
Arise Church Barn Sale in Pinckney
Arise Church in Pinckney has been having annual barn sales for quite a few years. They are well known for their bag sales, which net buyers great deals. The bag sale is $8.00, then reduced after 12 noon on Saturday. Most general merchandise that fits into a provided grocery bag qualifies for the bag sale. Antiques, collectibles, and upscale clothing, located in the church building, are priced separately. The bag sale, along with large items that are too large for a bag, are sold in the barn.
The proceeds support the Arise Church Capital Fund, but in addition, also help people in need. Community agencies are contacted, who then refer clients needing specific items. On occasion, people or programs that distribute items for charitable purposes will be assisted in finding what they need for their particular mission. The Arise congregation considers their barn sale to be more than just a fundraiser. They like being able to contribute something back to the community, as well.
The sale this year is on Friday, June 10th from 9 AM to 5 PM , and Saturday, June 11th from 9 AM to 3 PM. The church is located at 11211 Dexter-Pinckney Rd. in Pinckney, one mile south of the Pinckney High School. To be fair to all buyers, there are no early sales.
