Visitors to the first annual Indoor Yard Sale of the First Congregational Church of Marion might find any of these for sale on Saturday, March 24, or even walk off with underpriced treasures worthy of an appearance on Antiques Roadshow. The event, held to raise funds for the Church’s annual Christmas Cantata service and its ongoing programs, will begin at 9:30 am and last until 1:30 pm in Marion’s Community Center (at the rear of the General Store parking lot on Front St., Marion; handicap accessible). During the event, a hearty luncheon soup ($5) will be served.
While no clothes will be on sale, shoppers will find elegant and white elephants, books, CDs, DVDs, household items and furnishings, toys, sports equipment, lamps, garden items, and more. (For clothes, visit the Penny Pinchers Exchange, 39 Main St., Marion, 10:00 am to 4:00 pm on Wednesdays and 10:00 am to 1:00 pm Saturdays, beginning April 7.)
Donations are welcome. Call Connie Pierce (508-748-2372) after March 18 for drop-off instructions. Call Peter Sowden (508-748-1231) to arrange for large-item pick-up.
