Crown Point Garage Sale & Fundraiser

Saturday, September 16th 2023
8 am – 1 pm

SIGN UP TO HOST A GARAGE SALE

Click here or the “Sign Up” button above to register as a garage sale host. You’ll host the sale on your property ie your driveway, front yard or garage etc. There is no cost to sign up however you are asked to make a donation from the proceeds of your sale to the Hamilton Dream Centre (we suggest 20% of the proceeds of your sale).

As a garage sale host, you will receive a yard sign, and a “goodie bag” of items to help with your sale: a sharpie, yard sale stickers etc. Also, on the day of the event, directional signs will be installed around your street to help shoppers find you!

Sign up by August 31st to guarantee you receive a yard sign and goodie bag.

Lemonade / Treat stands

If someone in your household would like to sell treats: coffee, cookies, lemonade etc during the sale, please click the “Sign Up” button and indicate if you’ll be hosting a lemonade stand, a garage sale or both.

NEW THIS YEAR

If you have items you’d like to rehome and you don’t have the time or ability to host a garage sale, we are working with a local charity who may be able to sell your items and use the proceeds towards their community work.

Please call Laura at 905 -966 7580 or Sarah 289 440 4269 for more details.

In 2022:

• We had over 180 registered sales
• Thousands of previously loved items found new homes
• Neighbours got to chat with neighbours and shoppers
• Donations from the proceeds of garage sales were made to local organizations
• And we were outside enjoying a beautiful day together

Shoppers:

Make sure to gather your change, small bills, some re-usable shopping bags, and the garage sale map (to be provided online closer to the event) and come on out to SHOP TIL YOU DROP on September 16th!

Two Requests:

This is a free event for our neighbourhood and community however, I do have two requests of you:

• HOSTS: You are asked to make a donation from the proceeds of your sales. This year you’re encouraged to make a donation to the Hamilton Dream Centre, we suggest 20% of the proceeds of your sale. Here is a link to the Hamilton Dream Centre to make your donation on Sept 16th https://www.hamiltondreamcenter.ca/.

• SHOPPER AND HOSTS: you may see event posters on poles around the neighbourhood…. if you see them on or after September 16th, please take a moment to remove and dispose of them. I greatly appreciate your help!

We will do our best to keep everyone informed of other details via social media, neighbourhood flyers and email.

Safety:

All participants (hosts and shoppers) are still being encouraged to be safe: if you’re experiencing Covid symptoms, if you tested positive for Covid or if you’ve been close to someone recently who recently tested positive for Covid, please refrain from participating in the event.  Please use common sense and be considerate of others.
