Cameron County and Ridgway Chamber of Commerce teaming up to bring townwide yard sales to their respective communities.   Saturday May 20 from 9am till 3pm treasure hunters can enjoy shopping at more than 50 locations. 

The idea to host yard sales on the same day came at a meeting between the staff of the local chambers.  It has been years since Cameron County selected a day to promote yard sales.  In Ridgway it has been a tradition. “ Mimicking  the sign up procedure of Ridgway paved the way for Cameron County to offer residents the opportunity to sell unwanted items and attract shoppers to the community,” says chamber director Tina Johns Solak. 

Since yard sales take place outdoors, organizers elected to continue with the date despite the planned power outage that day.  A Facebook page has been dedicated to the event and paper copies of the map can be picked up at the Cameron County Chamber of Commerce office.
