the corner and The Growing Tree, 114 State Street, Kennett Square, is in high
gear getting set for its second annual Prom Dress Consignment Sale. It’s a
win-win-win situation for all.
Win #1: Young ladies looking for high-fashion prom attire can find it at a
reasonable price with most dresses in the $40 to $70 range.
Win #2: Consignees can earn some extra spending money (and make room in their
closets for new fabulous clothing) by selling their gently used prom attire.
Win #3: A portion of the proceeds will be donated to area Kennett, Unionville,
and Avon Grove After-Prom events. Consignees may choose which school to donate
a portion of the sale to if their dress is sold.
