Community garage sale deadline extended to May 6

The Friends of the Bluffton Public Library have extended the registration deadline for the third annual Community Garage Sale, which will be held on May 19, 20, and 21.

Maps highlighting individual sale locations, a list of addresses with sale descriptions, media coverage, and classified advertising will be coordinated by the Friends.

To appear on the map and list, participants must register by Friday, May 6, 2011. The Friends need a minimum of 20 participants for this event.

The cost to register is $20 which includes a $5 refundable deposit for the yard sign identifying sellers as Community Garage Sale participants and supporters of the Bluffton Public Library.

Sellers will receive extensive advertising in the Ada Herald, Bluffton Icon, Bluffton News, Findlay Courier, Lima News, as well as the Putnam Sentinel and its affiliates. Individuals who advertise a sale in all of these publications would pay approximately $150.

Registration forms are available in the library and on the library website at www.blufftonpubliclibrary.org. Checks should be made out to the Friends of the Bluffton Public Library. All proceeds go to benefit the library. Email questions to [email protected].
