The approximate cost of the jacket will be between $122.50 and $132.50 depending on the size, plus shipping and handling.
The deadline for placing your order will be October 24.
We will have sample jackets at the dress sale October 20 through October 22.

Used Dress and Equipment Sale Oct 20-22

Thursday, October 13th, 2011

The Dress & Equipment sale will be held on Thursday, October 20th from 4:45 – 6:45, Friday, October 21st from 4:45 – 6:15 and Saturday, October 22nd from 12:00 – 2:00 and here is how it works:

  • Each item brought in for sale must be listed on the “Check-In List” with a description, size (guess if you have to) and price.
    • Each item must also have a tag with the item number from the “Check-In List” your name, size and price. Safety pins work well to attach tags.  Please attach tags securely (no tape) and safely (no straight pins) to sale items.

    • ALL CLOTHING AND JACKETS MUST BE ON HANGERS.

    • When you bring your items to the sale for check-in (see times listed below), please give the items to the ice Monitor and they will check them in item by item.  DO NOT DROP OFF ITEMS FOR THE SALE WITHOUT CHECKING THEM IN!
    • After the sale is over you must confirm the items sold, and pick up unsold items.  Items not picked up will be locked in the Club Room. SFSC is NOT responsible for these items.

    WHY YOU SHOULD SELL: You will receive a credit on your next ice bill for items sold, with 10% being retained for the Club.  This is a great way to sell skating equipment that your skater has outgrown or no longer uses, pay off Club ice bill, help the Club and help other skaters.
