Dec. 1 Gobin holiday cookie sale promises goodies

The 21st annual Cookie Sale at Gobin Memorial United Methodist Church is set for 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Dec. 1.

Customers will don a plastic glove and make their own selections from dozens of trays of delicious and colorful homemade cookies. They can choose the kind, number and size of the cookies to put in a decorated tin.

Decorated tins of three sizes will be available for sale: A small tin for $4, a medium tin for $7, and a large tin for $11.

The secret is to get there early for the best selection.

To get to the cookie sale, use the Simpson Street entrance with the glass doors on the south side of the church building. The sale will be conducted in the church's basement. An elevette is available for those wishing to avoid the stairs. While the sale is coordinated by the United Methodist Women, other church members play an important part in providing cookies and assisting with the sale.

This year's proceeds will be used to help the Summer Enrichment Program and Gobin's kitchen fund.
