Old Home Day '21

June 6, 2021: The first outing of the year for Mama Robin. A scorching hot day in the nineties saved by the breeze. Old Home Days had taken place during the entire weekend. On Saturday the 5th, I was busy manning the Art Team tent with Ann, and then Peggy. Of the two days, Saturday was definitely the busier. Having said that, the weather undoubtedly served as a deterrent for people milling about the Common on Sunday. There was quite a bit of interest in the rugs and the process. I actually started and completed a Knotty Tote during the event. (That's me - not the greatest pic - with my handy-dandy hook.) Unfortunately, no sales this time. Hoping the upcoming Uncommon Art on the Common show on August 7 will be more successful. I'd really like to be able to donate to a few causes in town this year.

A Donation

May 28, 2021: Goffstown Main Street Program held its annual Golf Tournament at Stone Bridge Country Club. MRU donated a 4' oval rug, valued at $90, to GMSP for the silent auction. Very happy to report that the winning bid was over $100. It made my day!

2021 Events

Mama Robin Upcycles will appear in three different events so far this year. (I will post any additional ones as I find and enter them.)

• Goffstown Old Home Days (Sunday, June 6)

• Uncommon Art on the Common (Saturday, August 7)

• Goffstown's Giant Pumpkin Regatta: (Sunday, October 17)

These three events, in addition to being in town and quite busy, seem like the most likely to be successful in this endeavor. I truly hope to be able to sell out what I have to offer on those given days.
