No donated merchandise will be accepted for resale this year. But, residents can still participate in several other ways. People can reserve space to sell their own treasures, make a financial donation or come by to shop on the day of the sale. 

 

Spaces are sold on a first-come, first-served basis while they last. Spaces, which are eight by sixteen feet, are $25 each. Premium spaces are $30. Table rentals are available for $10.

 

“This annual event is not only fun, but also raises money for two worthy causes,” says Supervisor Carol A. Teschky. “We encourage our Township residents to participate, to give financial support, or plan to just come by to shop.”
