Community Event: Spring Swap & Potluck

Spring Swap & Potluck: A Community Wide Event with Adeline Yoga

Saturday, May 9 | 3:30–6:30 pm

Join us for an afternoon of sharing, gathering, and lighthearted exchange with the Adeline Yoga community.

Bring gently loved clothing, books, or yoga props to swap, enjoy a springtime potluck, and take part in our AYS Yoga Blessings Tombola.

Come for the whole afternoon or drop in for a portion—everything is designed to be easy, welcoming, and fun.

 

Schedule

Swap: 3:30 – 5 pm

Potluck: 5 – 6:30 pm

 

I’ve never been to a clothing swap. What should I expect?

A swap is a simple and joyful way to exchange items you no longer need for something new-to-you. It is so fun to trade gently worn or unwanted clothing and other items with others – and try on clothes you NEVER thought you would ever wear. Certainly it is a chance to clear space, reduce waste, and discover unexpected treasures—all within your community.

We have done several swaps in the past, and many of our favorite clothes were found there. You never know what you might find for yourself. It’s a win-win for everyone: clean out your closet, divert items from being down-cycled, and go home with free, new treasures.

What can I bring?

• Clothing is the main feature
• Accessories, scarves, shoes, bags, hats, jewelry
• Books
• Yoga props
• Tarot decks or other meaningful items that you think might resonate with the Adeline community

Think of items that are in good condition but no longer serve you—things ready for a second life.

 

Guidelines for swapping

• Bring up to 10 items
• Items should be clean, undamaged, and usable
• Please leave your bras, underwear, and swimsuits at home
• Wear clothing that makes it easy to try things on (leggings work well)
• Bring a bag to carry your new finds
• Unclaimed items can either be taken home or donated – we’ll coordinate a donation drop afterward

Drop-off your donated items

You can drop-off your donated items starting Wednesday May 6th.  Please make sure all items get to the studio by 1 pm on Saturday May 9th.  We will need that time to build displays worthy of your items.

I don’t have anything to swap—can I still come?

Yes! Please do come! Bring yourself!  Bring your friends.  Bring bags to carry home what you find – and what you win in the Tombola.

 

What is the Tombola?

IYKYK.  It is the best. game. ever.

But most Americans have never played it.

In short, a tombola is a communal, festive game of chance.  Think of it as a playful mix between a raffle and bingo where you win great stuff.

Its celebratory and festive.  Don’t be surprised to hear yourself shrieking when you win from a curated collection of offerings—experiences, items, and gifts donated by our community.

$5 per ticket, you will be entered to win.  Expect twists and turns.  Discounts and discoveries.  We plan to run the tombola for both the swap and potluck.

All proceeds support the AYS Yoga Blessings Fund.

Tell me about the potluck

We’ll gather to eat at 5 pm.

Bring something vegetarian to share – Iyengar Yoga potlucks are soooo yummy.  Bring something you would enjoy eating.  Main courses, appetizers, salads, desserts or beverages are wonderful.

Labeling ingredients helps everyone.

Ok to simply come hungry without bringing anything:  staying to help clean up is a great way to support the potluck.

Please bring your own plate and utensils to help reduce waste.
