On the Road in November

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas…which means it’s time for Sleep Train’s Secret Santa Toy Drive!  From November 1 through December 12, all Sleep Train locations are accepting donations of new, unwrapped gifts for foster children and teens.  This includes toys, games, sporting equipment, electronics, CDs, and DVDs.  Drop off your donation at the Sleep Train Mattress Center at 6001 Florin Road in the Florin Towne Centre.  
A special shout out to our friends at Hometown Buffet for their upcoming Military Support Weekend.  In honor of Veterans' Day and our military personnel, their area restaurants will feature specially priced meals for veterans, music, and guest appearances.  Staff will also be offering coupons, good throughout the month of November.  The festivities will start at 11:00 am on Friday, November 5 and continue at 7:00 am on Saturday, November 6 and on Sunday, November 7.  Don’t miss the fun!  Visit Hometown Buffet in Southgate Plaza at 4300 Florin Road, Sacramento.
One man’s trash is another man’s treasure, as viewers of “Antiques Roadshow” can attest.  Here’s your chance to find that hidden gem at the Annual Fall Rummage Sale at the Buddhist Church of Florin.  There are hundreds of items for sale, all priced to move.  The event is Saturday, November 6, from 8:00 am to 1:00 pm, at 7235 Pritchard Road, Sacramento.  Free parking!
Speaking of trash…don’t dump that e-waste!  Take it to the E-Waste Event sponsored by the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Department Crime Prevention Unit.  On Saturday, November 13 from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm you can drop off your items at the Central Division Substation, 7000 65th Street, Sacramento (behind Burlington Coat Factory).  Acceptable items include TVs, monitors, laptops, computer towers, DVD players, printers, VCRs, stereos/radios, phones, video games, and microwaves.  No appliances or batteries!  For more details, call On-Site Electronics Recycling at 209-234-7994.
