June 27-30 – Community Garage Sale @ Town Hall
Hi all,
Think back to 2021, when Kim Oja spearheaded a Community Garage Sale to raise money for the Recreation Project …. many of you stepped up to help and the sale was a success. This year, we are asking for help with a 2nd Community Fundraising Garage Sale scheduled for June 27-30. Start putting your spring cleaning items in a pile for the sale! Just as the last sale, all proceeds from items donated will go to support the Recreation Project. Please note the following:
1. Items accepted: Items donated should be in good condition. Please price your items with an easy to peel off sticker; this will save a lot of time in setting up the sale, and in bringing unsold items to sites such as the Salvation Army, which will not accept items with price stickers.
2. Items not accepted: Clothing…it typically doesn’t sell. Baby cribs, car seats, mattresses, electronics like TV’s & computers; large household appliances like washers, dryers, stoves, etc.; chemicals and paints; sleeper sofas; waterbeds; guns and ammunition.
3. Drop-off Items. We will collect items starting on Thursday, June 27, from 9:00 AM – 7 PM. You can also bring items Friday or even Saturday; call us if you need to make other arrangements to drop off items.
4. Hours. We are thinking the sale will start Friday, June 28 from 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM, Saturday, June 29 from 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM and Sunday, June 30 from 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM…we are thinking items will be offered on Sunday for ½ price or a free-will donation.
5. Clean-up. We know at the end of the sale we will need to clear out any unsold items. We know the Goodwill and Salvation Army will take some items. Clara’s Cupboard is NOT able to take items this year. We think Itasca Restore will be able to take items. Do you know any churches that will accept items at the end of June? Any other ideas?, let us know.
6. Advertising. We will need signs to place at roadway intersections – anyone willing to help make signs and put them out? We are thinking we should advertise in the Grand Rapids Herald and will do Facebook Garage Sales postings. Any other advertising suggestions?
7. HELP IS NEEDED – We can’t do this alone, and we know many of you are willing and able to help with set-up on Thursday; sales on Friday, Saturday and Sunday; and help to take unsold items to those businesses or churches that can take them. We think everything will need to be cleaned out of town hall by noon Monday. Send us an email or phone or text if you can help.
More information/updates will be provided in the next Township Newsletter in early June, by email, e-news, and posted on the Township Website.
We are open to your ideas for this sale – If you have questions or suggestions, please call or email us. Thank you so much!
