Wendy Steesy, daughter of Walt and Mary Steesy, was a Tupperware dealer among her
many other accomplishments. Wendy died last year and Walt and Mary donated her extensive collection of new Tupperware items to the Interlaken Historical Society with the hope that they could be used as a fundraiser for the Building Fund.
We were blown away by the success and community support for our Tupperware Party Fundraiser, be we still have more to sell. Come by the Community Life Museum during Olde Home Days, June 9, 2024. We will have Tupperware and books for sale as a part of our ongoing book sale.
All items have a suggested donation and all proceeds will be added to the Building Fund in
Memory of Wendy. Cash, check, and PayPal accepted. If you are using PayPal there will be a small convenience fee.
