Date set for annual garage sale

By Sam Waller

Registration for the Albany Chamber of Commerce’s community garage sale will start Monday, Aug. 22.

“It’s time to start getting ready,” Chamber manager Mary Beth Jones said.

The garage sale is scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 10. Jones said registration will close on Wednesday, Sept. 7.

The Chamber traditionally sponsors the city-wide event on the second Saturday of September.

A $10 registration fee covers inclusion on a map of garage sale participants and a yard sign.

“The signs I give them now are plastic,” Jones said. “People can pay their $10 and take them away. We got rid of the old wooden ones you had to bring back.”

Signs will be ready to pick up the week of the event.

Jones said maps will be available at the Chamber office at 7:00 a.m. on the day of the sale.
