Boomerang Consignment and Resale has been in Los Alamos for eight years and is celebrating on Saturday with a full day of activities at the store for the community. Owner Anna Dillane has created a unique business that is popular with locals and tourists alike. A year ago, Dillane and Asst. Manager Heather Elliott launched Gaia Gift Shop, located within Boomerang and specializing in “the science-y, the snarky and the sacred. Gaia offers brand new items ranging from tie dye clothing, scientist mugs, magnets and tea towels to Solar Spectrum earrings and New Mexico souvenirs.

Throughout the day on Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Boomerang will be celebrating with punch and complimentary homemade gourmet cookies by culinary expert Marilyn Johns. A prize wheel will be spun with every purchase and customers will receive a raffle ticket with every $25 purchase. Other activities include:

10 a.m. to noon: Free Angel Card Readings with Anna

12 p.m. to 2 p.m.: Free Tarot Card Readings with Rebecca

2 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.: Mini Style Sessions with Heather who will put together outfits at Boomerang. Heather has a wonderful gift for mixing patterns and colors in new and fun ways.

3 p.m. to 5 p.m.: Mini Makeovers with Asia Ginn, a professional aesthetician and makeup artist who is fully trained in safe and healthy makeup application.

Boomerang is participating in the Los Alamos Chamber of Commerce Blue Bucks program. Also, Dillane is donating 10 percent of the day’s proceeds to NMDOGS. Gift cards in any denomination are available for purchase.

Boomerang is located at 1247 Central Avenue in Los Alamos, phone (505) 662-1479.
