This week, Athens Area Habitat for Humanity is going to be hosting the grand opening of the Habitat ReStore, and everyone in the Athens community is invited! The store (formerly the thrift store) is located at 532 Barber Street and sells a wide range of materials, from houseware to hardware, all of which are %100 recycled. Here's a lsit of how we're celebrating this special occasion.

Thursday, September 20th, Habitat will be hosting Free Book Day, where patrons are free to browse the ReStore's library and grand a handful of free books of every genre!

Friday will be Women's Build Day, where informational materials about the Women's Build will be on display, and all proceeds and donations will benefit the 2007 Women's Build Campaign, "Building Green and Building Dreams"

Saturday, September 22nd is the big day, where from 12-3PM we will have live music, food, a raffle (tickets are included with every ten-dollar purchase in the store) and an auction, where we will be auctioning off our German volunteers for an afternoon of free labor. So if you have any yard or house work that needs to be done, be sure to stop by and place a bid!
