Spring Forward at Junior League's Annual Clothing Sale

Second Time Around, 37 DeForest Ave, the thrift shop operated by the Junior League of Summit (JLS), is ready to unveil its first wave of spring merchandise. The annual Spring Fling event, featuring affordable spring clothing for men, women and children, will be held on Thursday, March 24th, from 9:30 a.m. to 8 p.m.

“Thanks to the generous donations of the JLS members and other members of the community, we can help local families make the seasonal shift on a budget,” said Virginia Cepeda, President of the JLS, “We have refreshed our inventory with high quality spring clothing and housewares at a fraction of department store prices.”

According to Shop Manager Marie McNamera, “In addition to great finds for spring, shoppers can continue to enjoy fabulous deals on winter merchandise and stay warm if the cool weather lingers.”

Since its inception, the Shop has raised over $3,000,000 to benefit Summit and surrounding communities. Second Time Around is one of only two thrift shops in New Jersey featured in the book, True Prep. The Shop accepts MC, Visa, and debit cards.
