Successful Garage Sale!

2013 Boulevard Lane Garage Sale.
Based on the overwhelmingly positive feedback received and personal observations made during our recent Garage Sale weekend, I believe the event was a success

It was great to get out and talk to people and sense their excitement over the event.  A couple residents actually sold out the very first day, leaving nothing to put out on the second!

Traffic was up, thanks in large part to advertising in the Seattle Times, Craigslist, Renton Patch and Fairwood Community News.  Beautiful weather didn't hurt our cause either!

Last year it was reported that we went thru 20 maps total throughout the three day weekend.  This year, we went through 20 in the first day!  75 maps total were printed off, and were gone by Sunday morning.

Thank you to all who participated in this year's event.  Remember, it is a FREE event!  It costs nothing to be listed on our map, and actually helps us in advertising the event.  Please keep this in mind for next year!

Don't forget that Dumpster Day is coming up next.  The dumpster will be located near the 4-way stop this Saturday from 9am to 5pm.  Please see our Facebook page for all the details!
