Finally, some sunny skies and I just received word that Shady Side is planning a huge yard sale, encompassing the entire peninsula, the last Saturday of the month on April 30th. Mark your calendars if you are a yard sale junkie ie. love bargains. There is sure to be plenty to stop and see. Sponsored by the Shady Side Rural Heritage Society, local communities participating include Idlewilde, Columbia Beach, Cedarhurst, Westelee, the Captain Salem Avery Museum, and Avalon Shores. These subdivisions will have a central display area, and individual residents may choose to have their own private sales. Who knows what will be offered for sale that day, until you get there. You may find a unique collectible or antique. Or at the very least, a second coffee pot or a brand new bedspread.
The morning will begin, (you do know that yard sales start early)
with free coffee and coffee cake at 8:00 a.m. at the Captain Avery Museum located at 1418 E.W. Shady Side Road. Refreshments will be served until they run out.
Items will be for sale at the museum and maps will be provided of all the sale locations in Shady Side.
The event will be held rain or shine, and is scheduled to end at noon.For more information, call the Museum at 410 867 4486, or visit the web site, http://www.shadysidemuseum.org.
