 
Looking for a
bargain? Need to sell something? Here’s your chance! Nine
local chambers of Commerce have gotten together to sponsor a one
hundred mile long yard sale. That’s right, ONE HUNDRED MILES
of opportunity to sell your wares or find that perfect bargain that
you’ve been hunting for!
Your
shopping route will begin at Ash Grove, Missouri. Then you will
travel down Highway 160 to Greenfield, then south on Highway 39
to Mount Vernon. From there, you will travel along Highway 265 to
Aurora, to Marionville, Crane, Galena and Reeds Spring to Highway
13 and then ending in Branson West.
Contact the Chamber
of Commerce in any of the listed towns for details, further information,
and to pick up a flyer to mark your sale.
Missouri Department
of Transportation has given permission to set up your booth along
the prescribed route (listed above) for one day only. Saturday,
September 13, from sunrise to sunset. So mark your calendars and
make your plans!
Before setting
up, be sure to ask permission of any business or landowners where
you want to set up. Be mindful to pick a spot with ample parking
so as not to cause any traffic problems. Be extremely conscious
of traffic and pedestrian safety. Be aware, we cannot attach our
sale signs to any traffic signs or privately owned signs. Pick up
your trash and remove your signage when finished.
Remember, it
is very important to be located on the Route. A log of bargain hunters
don’t want to take time to follow signs off the route!
This can be a
great fundraiser for schools, churches and other organizations.
So
get out there and enjoy yourself, make money, spend money, see the
crafts and talent of Southwest Missouri. Guaranteed, you will find
more than a bargain.. or two! We’ll see you along the route
of the 100 MILE YARD SALE on SATURDAY,
SEPTEMBER 13, SUNRISE TO SUNSET!
For more information,
contact your local Chamber of Commerce or City Hall or the Mt. Vernon
Chamber of Commerce at 417-466-7654.
