City-wide garage sale is April 27 years ago
Time to work on your spring cleaning! You will have a chance to market your winter leftovers at the Peabody citywide garage sale April 27.
The Main Street organization has sponsored this event for the last several years. This year with their reorganization effort taking priority, the Main Street board decided not to act as sponsoring agent for the garage sale.
Hoch Publishing, which owns the Peabody Gazette-Bulletin as well as the Marion County Record and the Hillsboro Star Journal, will be taking care of maps, signs, and advertising for the event.
Melvin Honeyfield handles the advertising for all three newspapers. "We already create the maps and ads for Marion and Hillsboro," he said. "It just makes sense to take care of Peabody's day of garage sales too."
A map of the garage sale sites will be printed in all three papers and each seller will be allowed to run a couple of sentences about the merchandise, location, and time.
Watch the paper in the next few weeks for specifics. In the mean time, clean the garage, basement, and all those closets. One man's junk is another man's treasure!
