The Milestone Award — a new honor for longevity of dedication — went to Bert and Bill Sheridan.

This year’s program reinstated a fashion show that featured volunteer models and “gently used” garments from the shop.

St. Paul’s Thrift Shop’s volunteers thank all who donate and shop there, allowing the store to give generously to various causes.

St. Paul’s Thrift Shop, on 28788 N. Main St., in Daphne, is open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Tuesdays through Fridays, and the same hours on Saturday.

A side area is available for drop-off donations; receipts are available for donations during office hours.

Volunteers are welcome; you can serve three-hour shifts, or whatever fits your schedule.
