UPCOMING EVENTS:

* TASTE OF CHERRYDALE, MAY 26:  Taste of Cherrydale

*  THE GREAT ANNUAL CHERRYDALE NEIGHBORHOOD WIDE YARD SALES EVENT!!!   SATURDAY June 9th; SIGN UP AND PAY BY JUNE 2nd

Now is the time to get your home listed and on the map for the Great
Annual Cherrydale Neighborhood Wide Yard Sales! The date this year is Saturday,
June 9th, the time is 8 to 1 pm.
Here is how it works –
o You gather your “treasures”, “junk”, collectibles, antiques,
sporting goods, toys, books, furniture, clothes, or “whatevers”,
o then you call or email Scott Springston or Kathy Holt
(703-528-1548, _sdakss@aol.com_ (mailto:sdakss@aol.com) ) and they will put you on the
map for a mere $5 fee – which barely covers the cost of the ads, the flyers,
maps, signs and arrows! This year, due to many non paying customers, you
must pay before you are listed on the map!! The deadline to be included in
the sale is June 2nd
o The evening before or the morning of the sale, you put the items
out in front if your house, decide on the price you want, and wait for the
hordes of buyers to come pouring in – that’s all there is to it!!
o Kids, can set up a lemonade stand, and sell lemonade and other
goodies!
Scott and Kathy will handle the advertising – including making a map
(listing all the houses holding a sale) which is distributed to the people
holding sales (so they in turn can pass them out to customers); the maps are
also posted in various spots in the community; ads are taken out in several
local newspapers, and the sale is listed online also. Scott puts up a couple
huge signs (and lots of little signs) advertising the event two weeks before
so cut through traffic is aware of the upcoming event. Then, the day
before the sale Scott and Kathy (and their son Dakota) cover the neighborhood
with directional arrows to help drivers find all the sales in the community!
Clean out your attic, garage, and basement; get rid of those old toys you
keep tripping over! No need to pay eBay fees to get rid of some of that
collection or just plain clutter! Meet your neighborhoods, have some fun,
recycle your stuff and maybe make some cash! Be a part of the Great Annual
Cherrydale Neighborhood Wide Yard Sale Event!
