This Saturday **May 14th**, your shopping excursion in Old Town's Boutique District will benefit countless area organizations in need.

<https://www.eya.com/hs-fs/file-3732987071-jpg/blog-files/otbd-288x300.jpg>Wander along Old Town's historic streets from shop to shop and up to 25% of proceeds will go back to the community. Among the 28 participating retailers, you'll find a wide selection of home décor, fashion, jewelry, beauty, children's apparel, food, wine and gifts.

Afterward, grab a patio seat at one of King Street's acclaimed restaurants for an end to a relaxing day.

If you'd rather see items ***leave*** your home, many of the stores are accepting donated clothing, non-perishable food items, books, DVDs and other items.
