page 30 s APRIL 2009 Crozet gazette The thrift store will mark its 30th anniversary this month with a reception open to the community on Saturday, April 25, at Crozet United Methodist Church from 1 to 4 p.m. The Green Olive Tree Spruces Up for Spring The Green Olive Tree thrift shop closed for a week in March to pack winter clothes (they have been sent to missions) and set out spring and summer items. While they were at it, they had the store interior repainted a creamy yellow, installed an air conditioner, made new curtains, de-cluttered ruthlessly and made labels and signs for prices and displays. Customers who came in when the store reopened did a double take. The store seems comparatively bright and spacious now. “It’s been a great effort,” said volunteer Eleanor Kroeger. “Everybody’s delighted by the fresh new look.” The register tape was curling on the floor, longer than it had ever spooled out before, and the volunteers, feeling camaraderie, were dizzy over the jump in sales. And there were new donations to sort, too. In the front windows, Easter decorations brightened the ledges. All the stuffed toy bunnies in them are looking for new cuddle buddies. CCAC Resolution On the 30th Anniversary of The Green Olive Tree Whereas, seven Crozet ladies came together in 1979 for Bible Study and fellowship, and out of this gathering grew the idea of starting a used clothing store to serve Crozet; and Whereas, June Andrews, Nancy-Virginia Bain, Ruby Garnett, Sarah Rogers, Mary Shirlen Willets, Evelyn Doyle, and Grace Waller were blessed with good sense, compassionate hearts, and total dedication to their project, named “The Green Olive Tree;” and Whereas, the Green Olive Tree took root, thrived, and outgrew each of its succeeding locations, supported by a large group of loyal volunteers over the years; and Whereas, from its modest beginning the Green Olive Tree came to share its proceeds with over a hundred different ministries and organizations around the world, giving away well over $500,000; and Whereas, not only have tons of clothing been exchanged, but the Green Olive Tree has become a community center where people can share love and support, ideas and worries, and come away refreshed and up-lifted; and Whereas, the Green Olive Tree has served our community faithfully for thirty wonderful and generous years, and continues to prosper with the help of numerous volunteers and board members, all who serve without compensation; so Therefore Be It Resolved, that the Crozet-western Albemarle community, speaking through its representatives on the Crozet Community Advisory Council, recognize and applaud the work of the Green Olive Tree, and wish it continued success in its service to so many. It has been a true blessing for our community.
