Try the Rhea Lana VIP Consignor Program: No Effort Consignment in Tacoma!

The Easy Way to Earn Cash and Declutter!

Have you been thinking about consigning the clothes and toys your kids have outgrown? If you’d like to declutter and earn some cash doing it, consigning is a great option.

But, if you’re like a lot of busy moms I know, you might be hesitant because of the time it takes.

Hanging, Tagging, Storing, and Transport is All Done for You as a Rhea Lana VIP Consignor!

Have I got an idea for you! Today I’m delighted to tell you about the VIP Consignor Program from our lovely returning sponsor, Josie, owner of Rhea Lana Tacoma.

The VIP Consignor Program is like hitting the, “Easy,” button to deal with your children’s clutter. You hand over your clean, gently used clothing and kids’ gear, and a Rhea Lana team member hangs, tags, stores, and transports your items.

Let me repeat: You hand over your stuff, and that’s it! Except for picking up your money!

Yep, VIP Consignors get rid of their clutter with zero effort and still earn a percentage of the sales. And, as a VIP consignor you get a pass to the pre-sale event!

If you’re thinking, “Sign me up already,” just head here

You can also sign up for the traditional consignor option here! 

As you can imagine, there are a limited number of VIP Consignors for each event, so if that solution sounds like an amazing one for you, do get on it soon.

Have more questions about the VIP Consignor option? Just email Josie at josie@rhealana.com or you can become a VIP Consignor by signing up here.

Disclosure: This is a sponsored post. When you contact Josie about becoming a Rhea Lana VIP, I’d love for you to mention Sounds Fun Mom!

Family Camp Weekend At Camp Seymour

by Leave a Comment

 YMCA Camp Seymour Family Camp

Are your kids getting to have all the fun this summer? If you’re wishing you could go to summer camp too, you’ll love Family Camp from our sponsors at Camp Seymour.

Family Camp is coming up Labor Day weekend, and it’s just what it sounds like: A special weekend when the whole family is invited to come out and enjoy the fun of camp.

The Camp Seymour team creates the schedule, provides the activities, and cooks the meals. All you have to do is show up and have fun in their cabins by the beautiful Puget Sound. Sounds fantastic, doesn’t it?

The whole family is invited-grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, stepfamilies, and single parents-whoever is in your crew, they’re welcome.

LABOR DAY FAMILY CAMP is Labor Day Weekend, Friday-Monday, and the cost is super reasonable.

This would be a wonderful way to send off summer and create some memories before the kids go back to school. Really, what’s more important these days than having that time together?

Family Camp does fill fast, so register soon if you want in. All the details on how to do that are below!

LABOR DAY FAMILY CAMP at Camp Seymour

Friday – Monday

Adults: $199 | Youth (4-12): $139

Financial Assistance is available on a sliding scale, according to family size and income. Application forms are available at any YMCA of Pierce and Kitsap Counties branch, or on this website.

For more information, call 253-884-3392

or head here to register

Cool off by a nearby lake!-As always, make sure to be vigilant about watching your children around water. Only some of these spots have lifeguards. I’m also not sure about Lake Meridian in Kent as there was a fire earlier in the season that damaged the guard station.
