Once Again Thrift Store also known as OATS was established
by the HRC Calaveras Crisis Center's Advisory Board in 1996.

The thrift store was first located on St. Charles Street in an old residence.
In 1998 it moved to the location near the old airport.

In 2002 Kelli Fraguero, the current Program Director for the HRC
Calaveras Crisis Center, began to oversee OATS and in 2004
HRC Calaveras Crisis Center purchased the property at 682 E.
St. Charles Street, where it is now located.

OATS has 3 full time and 2 part time employees. There are a number
of volunteers who offer their time on an on going basis.
The staff and volunteers are passionate about the work they do there.
Volunteers and donations are crucial for the thrift store to operate.
OATS is in need of furniture, housewares, jewelry, tools, or any useful
household items.

The proceeds from OATS benefit the HRC Calaveras Crisis Center.
Your donations are tax deductible.

Donations are taken from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday thru Saturday.
