City-wide garage sale set Sept. 12

By Lynsi Musselman

The Albany Chamber of Commerce annual garage sale is just over two weeks away, on Saturday, Sept. 12.

Registration to get on the garage sale map began Aug. 24 and continues until Sept. 1 for residents who would like to participate.

Chamber manager Mary Beth Jones said the registration fee to be included on the map and receive a paper sign is $10 this year.

“Once registration has been paid in full, a sign will be printed with the name and address of the participant,” Jones explained.

She added the signs do not need to be returned after the sale.

Free maps will be printed and available on the day of the sale.

Jones said she will open the Chamber office from 7:00 to 10:00 a.m. on the day of the garage sale to hand out maps.

“After 10:00 a.m. maps will be left at the door for shoppers to pick up,” Jones said. “The office will be closed before 7:00 a.m., so no early birds.”

For more information or to register to be a part of the garage sale, call Jones at 325-762-2525.
