Thanks to donations from the public, the Confidence Learning Center in the Brainerd Lakes Area hosts a camp sale every year. This year’s sale will be held September 19-21, and proceeds will go towards supporting camp activities.

A wide variety of items will be sold during the sale, including furniture, power tools, sporting goods and equipment, and appliances.

Confidence Learning Center, also known as Camp Confidence, provides educational and recreational opportunities for people with cognitive and developmental disabilities. The organization is grateful for the generosity of the public in donating and purchasing items before and during the sale.

“We are so grateful for the large amounts of donations we receive here every year,” said Amynda Hadfield, camp director at Confidence Learning Center. “Our parking lot is full and it’s probably the largest fundraiser in the area by far. So we’re so grateful.”

To schedule a donation pickup, you can call the Confidence Learning Center at 218-828-2344 through September 10. Donations can be dropped off at their building in East Gull Lake through September 17.
