The Village of Montgomery is pleased to announce that its Spring Community Garage Sale will take place on May 14, 15 & 16th from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Each year, nearly 100 households participate, and this year promises to be even bigger and better! The fee to participate will be $10 per address.
Registration forms are available at the Village Hall, 200 N. River Street in Montgomery and on the Village website at ci.montgomery.il.us/index.aspx?NID=507. The registration form gives the option of participating on all three of the scheduled dates or selecting specific days to participate.
This year automatic rain dates are scheduled for May 21, 22 and 23th, just in case the weather doesn’t cooperate on the planned weekend. The registration form gives the option of signing up for the rain dates at the same time with no extra cost.
The Community Garage Sale will be advertised in local newspapers beginning on May 13th. Garage sale flyers will also be created featuring a map showing all garage sale locations, plus a 15-word ad for each address describing the items for sale. Maps will be available at the Village Hall and on the Village website starting May 11th. The deadline to be included in the advertising is 4:30 p.m. on Friday, May 1st.
This event is sponsored by Montgomery’s Historic Preservation Commission. The $10 participation fee will help support Settler’s Cottage on River Street. For additional information, please call Debbie Buchanan at (630) 896-8080 ext. 1114.
