SAVE THE DATE!!! Eighth Annual Carleton Garage Sale
Posted by Joshua Jude, May 22nd, 2008.
Carleton’s Eighth Annual Lighten-Up Garage Sale will take place in the West Gym on Thursday, June 19 and Friday, June 20 from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Saturday, June 21 from 8 a.m. to noon. Saturday is a fill-a-bag sale. The sale, sponsored by Acting in the Community Together (ACT), the College’s center for community service and civic engagement, is open to the public.
Volunteers from ACT and other benefiting organizations will run the sale, with all proceeds going to Project Friendship, Northfield Area Special Olympics, and the Northfield Union of Youth (The Key). Last year’s garage sale raised $12,500 for local non-profit organizations.
The garage sale will feature clothes, linens, books, electronics, kitchenware, and other miscellaneous items donated by Carleton students following their dorm room clean-ups.
The West Gym is located on the Carleton campus off Highway 19 East in Northfield. Ample parking is available in the Carleton College Stadium parking lot. Donations for the sale are also being accepted through Wednesday, June 18, weekdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m (please call ahead).
