Happy Customers and Happy Vendors
PLYMOUTH – The twen- ty-eighth annual Plymouth Town Wide Yard Sale on September 7 was the biggest yet. The commu- nity group site at the Plymouth Municipal Airport hosted more than sixty vendors. More than forty official yard sales were set at homes, businesses, churches, and small group sites around town. The weather was perfect, and visitors came from all around New England. Feedback from vendors all around Plymouth was that they made money and had fun. To quote a few:
“Another great sale. Here's a picture from our Cub Scouts troop site. Please thank all the re- peat customers; I saw many this year.”
“I just wanted to say thank you for such a wonderful event. I was a vendor with a friend of mine, and we had a fantastic
day. So nice to see the commu- nity coming together in this way! And so nice to have my no lon- ger wanted/needed things to find good homes! Everything ran smoothly, the crowds were huge.”
“Thank you and the other volunteers for the amazing job running this wonderful event. We had a booth this year for the first time and sold so many things. My grandchildren sold lots of toys that they had outgrown and really enjoyed doing it. Once again, thank you.”
The group site at the Airport was expanded from three rows to five. The air was filled with tempting scents from the A&B Concessions food truck. Custom- ers and vendors appreciated hav- ing two toilet units from Randlett Trucking and Septic. Several non-profits raised funds for their services and awareness for their
causes, from adorable Girl Scouts to the bak- ing divas of the Plym- outh Fire Department Auxiliary. Families passed on toys and heirlooms cleaned out estates and barns. Crafters sold beau- tiful items, including colorful fabric arts, jewelry, wooden flags, clothing, and decora- tions. Customers were mannerly, parking in neat rows and helping to keep the field neat. Small planes and a powered sail added interest and thrilled the children.
Any home, busi-
ness, or institution in Plymouth can have a
number on the map (if they reg- ister in time). More registrations equal more donations for the Bridge House Veterans Fund, translating to more services pro- vided. The yard sale is also im- portant for bringing new people to Plymouth—shoppers, house
hunters, entrepreneurs, and po- tential employees. It’s a whole- some family activity for vendors and customers. You never know what you will find at a yard sale. Visit https://www.facebook. com/PlymouthYardSaleNH for many fun pictures.
