The Kiwanis Club of Carefree Seeking Marketplace volunteers to make a community difference
CAREFREE/CAVE CREEK/N. SCOTTSDALE – The Kiwanis Club of Carefree, a non-profit organization, is seeking volunteer assistance for the Kiwanis Marketplace Thrift Store, 6535 E. Cave Creek Road, in Cave Creek.
Approaching its second year of operation, the Kiwanis Marketplace is in need of additional volunteers to help staff the popular destination. Store sale profits support Kiwanis Club of Carefree scholarships and other programs for children of the north Valley.

The Kiwanis Marketplace is open from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m., Wednesday through Saturday.
Interested parties can apply at the store or call Craig Lemke, General Manager, at 480-488-7169.

Pricing and stocking of household goods

Cashier and Assistant Cashier
Greeter

Book, CD, and DVD sorting and pricing
