Bowmanstown Area Residents Connected has registered over 40 households to participate in their annual community yard sale from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday.

Take a few minutes to stop by the “BARC homes” at 422 Ore St., 509 White St., and 518 Hamilton St. where maps of the registered sellers will be distributed and Gertrude Hawk candy bars can be purchased as fundraisers for their community projects. The home at 422 Ore St. will also be selling spring perennials and house plants.

“I love the way the community yard sale brings people together” stated Christine Bottcher, a resident of Bowmanstown and member of BARC. “I get to check out what other people are selling, and for someone else, my junk may be their treasure.”

Shelly Nicholson “loves being able to recycle, reuse, and repurpose our things so they don’t end up in a landfill.”

While you are perusing through the streets, stop by the local nonprofits. Emmanuel UCC Church (509 Hamilton St.) will be hosting a basket social and selling hot dogs, The Bowmanstown- Parryville Lion’s Club will be selling their famous waffles, the Bowmanstown Park camp will be selling BBQ and pierogies, and the Carbon Model Train Society will have model train items for sale.

Don’t forget a few extra bucks to support the Bowmanstown Area Fire Company in their Boot Drop as you come into town.
