The SOCIAL SIDE of TOWN
by MARY ESHBAUGH HAYES
LADIES OF THE ASPEN THRIFT SHOP THE LADIES OF the Aspen Thrift Shop — 128 total — gave themselves their annual Winter Luncheon on Dec. 9 at the Aspen Meadows Restaurant. The volunteers work one shift every other week and the store could use more workers (especially young women). The Thrift Shop MARY celebrated its 65th ESHBAUGH year in Aspen this HAYES winter. The ladies take in clean, slightly used clothing and household goods and sell them at very reasonable prices. The proceeds then go to community nonprofits. In 2013, the Aspen Thrift Shop gave $487,895 to arts programs, environmental programs, youth activities, education and several other local organizations. Undercurrent...Aspen has settled down to normal after all the holiday activities and will stay normal for January...and then here comes the busy winter season of February, March and April.
