It’s amazing that “Slower Lower” Sussex County will be the focus of Extreme Makover: Home Edition<\/em>.\u00a0 A well deserving family will be awarded the surprise of their lifetime, but along with that, the show offers much more than entertainment. It’s an opportunity for the community to come together, to overcome struggles, and to share in the joys.<\/p>\n

A build project of this magnitude is only successful because of the volunteers, sponsors and donors that open more than their hearts.
\nIt was surprising to see a thrift shop on the list of cash sponsors for this Extreme Makeover project<\/a>, and even more surprising that they were able to donate $5,000! During these hard economic times, they contributed a substantial amount of money.
\nA Friendly Visit<\/strong>
\nOn Monday I went to visit All Saints’ Parish Thrift Shop\u00a0in the Rehoboth Plaza.\u00a0They are in what is often called “the forgotten mile”, but the area is not forgotten by any means. There is plenty of commerce on both sides of Coastal Highway; you’ve probably been caught in its\u00a0traffic as you traveled north or south on Ocean Highway.
\nFor a Monday morning, it was packed.\u00a0 Were they giving something away?\u00a0 The shop appeared to be quite stocked, even after the weekend.\u00a0Very organized with friendly staffers helping the customers.
\nIf anyone knows the hardships of someone in need is All Saints’ Parish Thrift Shop.\u00a0 It contributes to about 60 charities in\u00a0Sussex County,\u00a0besides the individual needs of some in the community, and other support organizations.
\nThe Organizers<\/strong>
\nI met Lynn Kaplan and Richard Faull, who with an army of about 60 volunteers of all denominations make the\u00a0Thrift Shop\u00a0a must stop shop for quality and affordable merchandise.\u00a0\u00a0Since 1994 this shop has been serving collectors, people living on a fixed income, students, and those that just love the art of “thrifting” – that love of rummaging through second hand stores, finding treasures that perhaps were someone’s trash, or imagining what the former life of the item was like.
\nLynn loves taking customers around, putting an outfit together and making suggestions.\u00a0 She said they have the best customers.
\nI wanted to meet them because I might not recognize them tonight at the Pep Rally.\u00a0 Will they be crying or laughing?\u00a0 Richard said he cries easily.\u00a0 It will, definitely, be an emotionally charged evening.
\nThe Pep Rally + Benefit Concert<\/a> will take place at Cape Henlopen High School in Lewes, Delaware.\u00a0 It will unite the community as a whole and it\u00a0will be very powerful. I hope to see you there!<\/p>\n
