Now is the time to clean out those closets and garages.

The Annual U.S. 12 Yard Sale will be held Aug. 12-14. The Uptown Improvement Association is asking local residents to get involved in the community yard sale in the hopes of making Edwardsburg the spot for bargains and treasures.

Participants can chose their own hours and make a sign for their yard.  The association is hoping to make the sale an annual Edwardsburg event.

Booths are also available at the Edwardsburg Museum. To secure a booth, contact Marge Braniff at 699-5725 or to donate items for the Uptown Improvement Association sale, call Nancy Stoner at 663-6835.
