You need to check this place out!

Sounds like a great idea and fun time!

🌟 Introducing the Mount Vernon Yard Sale Trail! 🌟

Get ready for an exciting new community event happening twice a year—on the weekends before the spring and fall cleanup days! (Dates and locations coming soon!)

This is your chance to clear out those closets, garages, and attics, and turn "trash into treasure" (or vice versa 😉).
Join your neighbors in a citywide weekend of buying, selling, and trading:
🛒 Host a yard sale, garage sale, or curbside/porch pickup—it’s up to you how you participate!
📍 Optional address sign-up: Share your location with the City, and we’ll create a handy list of participants to help promote your sale and drive traffic your way.

Best of all, there’s no cost to participate!

Stay tuned for more details, including dates and sign-up instructions.
