Chantilly Highlands April 28th Yardsale
by Susan McCullough
It's that time of the year again when we look forward to hearing the birds sing outside our windows,
spending time in the warm sun, and participating in the annual community yard sale. Beth Smith and Susan
McCullough are coordinating this year's sale, and hope it will be our best one yet!
The sale will be held on Saturday, April 28th from 8 AM until 12 noon, rain or shine.
Advertising
We will be advertising our yard sale in all of the local weekly newspapers in western Fairfax County and
eastern Loudon County. In addition, we plan to post signs along Centreville Road, Franklin Farm Road and
McLearen Road a couple days before the sale. Please help to spread the word to your family,
friends, and co-workers to come out and find bargains galore!
Beth has made some attractive yard sale signs that can be placed at the end of your street or pipestem to
advertise to potential customers. If you would like one of these signs to post,
please contact Beth at (703) 834-1903 NO LATER THAN Thursday, April 26th .

Charitable Donations
We have been unable to find a charity that is willing
to send a truck to our community the afternoon of
April 28th to pick up donations. All of the charities we
spoke with would be glad to pick up donations on their
truck's regularly scheduled days in our area in late April
or early May. Below is a listing of several charities who
would be interested in receiving donations on their next
scheduled pickup run.
