“When local groups such as Rotary and the kids at the high school pull their resources, the effect is terrific, says Graham Phaup, Camden Rotary Club president. We appeal to our friends in the community to seek out and donate items to the Giant Yard Sale. We are extremely grateful to Machias Savings Bank for their generous support of this event so 100% of the proceeds will be donated directly back to the community.” Club members are busy collecting quality items for this event. Featured items will include sports equipment, kitchenware, children’s clothing, furniture, gardening gear, home remodeling items, movies and music, and much more. Electric goods will not be featured on either day.
If you would like to support this appeal, and have choice items you would like to donate, please call Susie Goddard at 207-975-2528.
