Time for the Annual Springtime Treelake Village Garage Sale!
Time to dust off all that extra stuff that has been taking up room and give it a new home. This year the Spring garage sale will be held on May 16th and there will be several updates in the next couple of week with information about how to get involved and registered as a seller. Each registered seller will receive a garage sale package as well as be included on the official Google Map for the event.
In the meantime, head on over to the event entry at www.GoGraniteBay.com to RSVP and get on the list.
Let's make this the most successful one yet!
