'Poke & Peek' closed after Thanksgiving; Drawing coming soon

WINNEMUCCA - The Poke & Peek Thrift Shop will be closed on Thursday and Friday, Nov. 24 - 25, in order for members of the Humboldt Hospital Auxiliary to enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday with their families.

The Poke & Peek will reopen for business in full Christmas swing on Wednesday, Nov. 30.

As part of its Christmas celebrations, the all-volunteer organization will host a drawing for a large "Santa Bag" and a smaller "Elf Bag." That drawing will take place at 1 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 14. Winners do not need to be present to win, but should pick up their prizes before Christmas.

The Poke & Peek is the sole source of income for the Humboldt Hospital Auxiliary, an all-volunteer organization distinguished by members' pink coats.

The "pink ladies" and their gentlemen counterparts provide service in the various departments at Humboldt General Hospital as well as at the Poke & Peek where volunteers sort, price, display and sell clothing, toys, books and household items.

The Poke & Peek is located at 3200 Bengochea Circle in Sage Heights. The thrift shop is open Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and Fridays and Saturdays from noon to 4 p.m. Donations are gladly accepted during the store's hours of operation. A donation drop box is also located to the west of the store's main entrance for after-hours donations.

For more information, please call the Poke & Peek Thrift Shop during business hours at (775) 623-2076 or call Humboldt General Hospital at (775) 623-5222.
