NEW BOSTON'S SECOND ANNUAL COMMUNITY YARD SALE HUGE SUCCESS

For the second year in a row, New Boston residents were able to have a community wide yard sale this past weekend (June 5).

The event, which began last year, was the brainchild of local resident Bryce Flowers. Last year was a great success and this year's event was even better. The sales didn't officially start until 9 a.m. but people were already walking through the village as early as 7 a.m.

Countless yard sales were throughout the Village selling everything from television sets to clothes, games, toys, and furniture. Vendors were permitted to set up throughout the village for no charge to provide refreshments.

I believe the Community Wide Yard Sale is so much more than just residents making money. The entire experience brings our community together. We get to talk to each other, visit each other's homes, and enjoy some of the things that make small communities so special.

I have always been very proud of our community and this weekend was no different. I would like to thank all who participated and look forward to next year.
