The Woodhaven Residents' Block Association will be hosting a community-wide yard sale—a coordinated day when homes across Woodhaven can all hold yard sales at the same time. This will maximize interest and unite typically isolated events into a full-neighborhood happening.
The "Great Woodhaven Yard Sale of 2013" will occur on Saturday, September 28, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Participation is totally free. The WRBA will distribute handouts and will create a map showing the location of all participating households (no exact addresses, only locations) at no cost to participants.
"With so many participants expected, and with such a wide variety of merchandise that will be offered, we think it will be an unmatched weekend community event in Woodhaven," said WRBA Director Vance Barbour. "We hope you'll be a part of it, as either a seller or a buyer."
The rain date for the Great Woodhaven Yard Sale will be Sunday, September 29.
Households who want to sell merchandise can be a part of this event by signing up with the WRBA by September 13. This can be done by e-mailing info@woodhaven-nyc.org, calling us at 718-296-3735, or by filling out the form online here: http://bit.ly/WoodhavenYardSale (no period at the end). Those who sign up in time will be included on the map.
