Jolene Highley with AAA3 is in to tell us about their upcoming garage sale and Older Americans Month!
All proceeds from the sales go directly back into the community, supporting the organization's outreach and service programs.
“It helps the community so we can be able to do our programs that we do with feeding and our after school programs,” said Captain Charity Bender of the Lima Salvation Army.
LIMA, Ohio (WLIO) — With spring in full swing, garage sale season is kicking off — and the Bradfield Community Center is getting in on the action.
Director Jason Asaro says, “They’ll help with any kind of medication we may need for the animals, food of course. All the things we may need to use to basically just run the daily operations. Mainly thigs like that are to help us keep supplies for medical and for the sick and the injured for the most part.”
These cats are just waiting to find that forever home where they will be loved and cared for. There are curious cats, shy cats, adventurous cats, and cats that just sit back and take it all in. Each cage has a card for that furry friend that tells their disposition and when they were brought to the shelter. As a no-kill shelter, they are at capacity with cats and need to get them adopted.
You can follow the Historic Lincoln Highway straight through Ohio and find hundreds of garage sales on the way.
A garage sale will raise funds for two causes in the City of Lima. The 6th Ward Garage Sale will be held at the Future Church of Tomorrow located at 127 West Kibby Street on Friday, August 6th and Saturday August 7th.
Along the way, people looking for deals can find special areas, where hundreds of vendors are set up. Here locally, we have one of those vendor stops at the Wan Wert County Fairgrounds. Vendors were setting up on Wednesday for a busy weekend, which has become a tradition over the years at the fairgrounds.
The World’s Longest Yard Sale is in the area, and actually a lot of other areas along U.S. Route 127. On Thursday, the Van Wert Fairgrounds was filled with people scoping out hot deals and big steals.
Spring cleaning started early for the vendors at Moon City Event Center today for their indoor garage sale.
Moon City was filled with everything you’d want to find at a garage sale but conveniently out of the way of the wintery weather. Even if garage sales aren’t your thing, Moon City has boutiques and consignment shops in the building year-round along with a music shop as well.
