Share Your Skills And Learn From Others At The Westside Community Center

Skill, Hobby & Craft Expo Slated for Saturday, August 14th

(Salisbury, MD)
Do you have a skill or hobby that may be useful to others in the community? From gardening to martial arts, the Westside Community Center invites you to share your skill or hobby with others in the community during the Skill, Hobby & Craft expo on Saturday, August 14, 2010 from 12:00pm to 5:00pm.

Many of the skills common to those of previous generations such as hunting, sewing or food preservation have become lost or relegated to a hobby in today’s society. In light of the current economic situation, some are re-embracing these skills as a way to save money or plan for the future. The Skill, Hobby & Craft Expo is an opportunity to network with others in an effort to learn from one another. It was created from the idea that a community which learns from and supports one another will result in a strong community.

In addition to the opportunity to learn from others, the day’s events will include two cooking contests, one for dessert and another for crab cakes. There will also be an archery contest, emergency service demonstrations and auction.

Demonstration booths are free. Those wishing to sell their crafts/wares at the Expo may do so for a $20 booth fee. Please call 410-873-2993 to reserve your booth space. Admission to the Expo is free to the public.

For more information on the Expo or other events offered by the Westside Community Center please call 410-873-2993. Proceeds from the Expo directly benefit programs at the Westside Community Center, which is located at 21109 Bivalve Lodge Road in Bivalve, MD. Operated by a local advisory council, the Westside Community Center provides recreational and educational programs to the Nanticoke, Bivalve, Tyaskin, Whitehaven and Quantico communities.
