My client and I go there to volunteer. It is run by volunteers and run very smoothly. They have an amazing amount of supplies and for any girl scout leader or teacher.... This is the place to go,!
I also learned about their huge selection for teachers and scout leaders that they are allowed to sort through and then choose what they want and have it for free!
This place is a crafter's wonderland! There's everything from jewlery to sewing supplies to paper crafts, to wood and hardware! Everything is organized so you can find what you're looking for and the prices are amazing!
I was here in April and knew I wanted to return; my visit in October did not disappoint! This place is HUGE. Unless you are looking for something specific, I recommend that you first just walk through all the rooms to see what they have. Then, go back and shop the categories that inspire you. The book room--OMG--it's amazing. There's even a water machine available so you can fill up your water bottle! Be sure to check out all the art and decorations that are hanging up. Oh, and definitely look at the little rock that is on the counter near the register.
