Caroline’s Non Profit Thrift Shop is located in Aptos Village. The shop was founded in 2010 by Christina Licker, who continues to work as the director today. Their primary mission is to raise funds for Santa Cruz County non-profits that have programs and/or services for children with special medical, developmental, or psychological needs.

The majority of the funding from Caroline’s Non Profit Thrift Shop goes to their “core four” charities:

Children’s Hospice and Palliative Care Coalition
Hospice of Santa Cruz County
Jacob’s Heart
SPIN (Special Parents Information Network)

In just over four years, Caroline’s Non Profit Thrift Shop has donated over $600,000 for these and other worthy causes.

The shop is staffed by approximately 70 volunteers and is loaded with unique, high-quality, and rare items that have been donated by families near and far. They have a little bit of everything: dishes, linens, children’s clothing, toys, sporting goods, ladies clothing, accessories, a few choice items for men, and furniture, art and lighting.

Locally owned and operated by Russ and Tina (Hill) Coillot, (a Soquel High graduate) since 2010, Fleet Feet Sports Aptos is located in the Rancho del Mar Shopping Center. Fleet Feet Sports in Aptos strives to be more than just a store where you shop for shoes and apparel. Fleet Feet Sports is a place in the Aptos community you can visit often because you feel comfortable there. They are a resource for all your running, walking and general fitness needs; they will support you through setbacks and challenges and will celebrate your accomplishments. They are inspired everyday by you: our community.

In fact, Fleet Feet Sports in Aptos was recognized in 2013 by competitor.com as one of the 50 best running stores in the entire USA. That’s a pretty impressive achievement given the thousands of running stores across the country. But Aptos is the best, and so it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise that we would have one of the best running stores in the country.

Fleet Feet Sports also works with a number of charities in the area, they work with our kids in our elementary schools to help keep them fit, and sponsor a number of running events in the area. If you run, walk, jog, or get around on two feet, this is the place you need to come and check out.

The BFF Boutique is a clothing shop located in the historic Bayview Hotel in Aptos Village. BFF stands for “Bayview Fun Fashions” and although it’s an intimate shop, there’s no shortage of fun fashions to be had. Most of their inventory is for women, but they do have a small selection of items for men as well. They host special events when they will for example introduce new fashions for the season, and they often partner with GG Restaurant and Bar next door for discounts on food and drinks.

It’s a great place to check out quality, vintage clothing in a relaxed atmosphere. When you’re in Aptos Village, be sure to stop by!

The Aptos Chamber of Commerce is hosting a “Mad Hatter” Fashion Show and Tea Party on Sunday, April 27 from 11:30 AM til 2:00 PM at the Seascape Resort. The event will feature local models walking the runway, wearing fashions from local shops to music provided by local DJ Music Now DJ. Lunch will be served, and there will also be a raffle and trunk show with local boutiques offering their goods for sale.

Tickets are $45 and some of the proceeds will go to benefit the Katz Cancer Resource Center at Dominican Hospital. This is a great way to support local merchants, help fight cancer, grab some lunch, and see some great new fashions all at the same time!
