allboys4me Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 This might sound like a silly question, but I need some help. I am a RS President, and our Bishop authorized me to buy some new tablecloths because ours are so gross. However, they are not in the catalog he orders things from, and he doesn't know where to get them. I have asked the Stake RS President, and she doesn't know either. So, does anyone know where I can order table cloths for the ward? I assumed there was some central place- since every ward seems to have the same ones! But if not, I also need to know what size for our round tables and the rectangular tables, and what fabric. Thanks in advance for your help!

Elgama Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 may find this is wrong but we just use sheets for ours. -Charley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terryk Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 I have served in callings where I have had to order thigns, and for those items that are not listed in the distrobution center, you will need to order them from a local source, and then submit a request for reimburesement, best to go to the place offering the best deal too, as budgets are not always large for these things. but I remember signing checks for table clothes that people bought at a local store for the ward.

MarginOfError Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 I just checked the table coverings available through the Church (units can order materials through the Church from Corporate Express), but all they had was plastic and paper table cloths. I get the impression that you want something more durable, reusable, and you know, nice. I would recommend doing some web searches to find a good deal. Now is the perfect time too, you might have some surplus left for the year. Make sure you get your receipt processed before Dec 31st in order to make sure the money gets taken from your 2008 budget.

pam Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 I would contact one of the local linen rental places and see if they can recommend a place for you to purchase them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
