ACROSS THE UNITED STATES...
The Nation's Yard Sale
May 20 -22, 2011
Does your community participate in this? If not, here's what it's all about. You can click the link above to learn more or make plans to get involved.
"The yard sale started in 2000, stretching across most of Indiana. The goal is for it to grow into a Coast-to-Coast event held each year on the weekend before the Memorial Day weekend. The Great U.S. 50 Yard Sale also serves to promote tourism along U.S. 50, to unite the many diverse communities, to provide opportunities for fund raising by civic organizations, to aid the environment through recycling, and to serve as an opportunity for individuals to enjoy a great weekend of sales."

Have a fantastic weekend! -amy
