NORTH READING — The deadline for submitting applications to be located on the map of the annual Townwide Yard Sale is this Friday, April 18.
Any residential map requests submitted after the April 18 deadline will appear only on the electronic map.
This year’s Townwide Yard Sale is being held on Saturday, May 3 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Applications can be found on the town’s website (northreadingma.gov), by scanning the QR code on the pink fliers posted around town, by picking up a paper copy at the Edith O’Leary Senior Center, or by calling Joann at 978-664-0195.
Remember that for a small donation the Friends of the North Reading Council on Aging do all of the multimedia publicity and your location will be noted on a map available both online and for distribution the week before the sale. This ensures that customers can be prepared to find the best deals.
The Friends have had as many as 93 participants in the Townwide Yard Sale in previous years.
This event draws customers from far and wide. It is the only fundraiser held by the Friends of the North Reading Council on Aging. The proceeds enable this group of volunteers to provide financial support to the town’s Senior Center to pay for programming and necessities that are not included in the town’s budget.
