2nd Annual LSIA Garage Sale set for May 21-23, 2009
The second annual garage sale will be held May 21-23, 2009. We need contributions of clean used items to sell at sale. Last year we only had about 10 families contribute and helped to raise about $1,000.00 after expenses. If you think of how many people belong to association and as spring is approaching we will be cleaning out garage, closets etc. just think of how much we can raise. Let’s try to make several thousand dollars. Your donation is tax deductible and you will be given a receipt.
You are the best person to determine how much your item/items are worth so we ask that you mark them. If you have tables that we can use, that would be appreciated Each family will be assigned a number so we can return unsold items.
Purpose is to raise money to help with weed control and make our lake beautiful once again.

A few people had large items to sell on consignment and were willing to donate 10% of the sale price to LSIA, were allowed to display the items and the volunteers did their best to get offers or negotiate with prospective buyers based upon the items sale information form provided by the seller. Thank you to Carol Beasecker and Bob Beadle for all their time and hard work! Also, Thank You to Carol Roberts, Heather Beasecker, Judy Luhmann, Linda Hegner who volunteered their time throughout the sale and to Mike Peterson for putting up the signs.
