The annual Car Boot Sale/Flea Market at ISB by Nightingale Charity Club is fast approaching. While the general sale will be mentioned again as the date nears, NOW is the time to consider if you want to participate and sell! This is perfect if you are planning to move this summer, or simply want to clear out clutter in your home. The sale is on Saturday, April 13 from 9:30am-1pm, but if you want to participate you’ll need to act fast to reserve your space. Tickets for selling are RMB 200 before April 13 (RMB 300 on the day of the sale, if space allows; limited to 80 cars). Get your tickets at the ISB PTA store every Thursday from 10am-2pm (or contact nightingalecharityclub@gmail.com). All ticket proceeds will support BICCO’s medical mission which will bring three doctors from Stanford University to perform 50+ surgeries in China.
