Time to starting planning your Lincoln Highway BUY-WAY yard sale

Posted by Fred Steiner on Thursday, June 14, 2012

It’s almost time again to sign up for the Lincoln Highway BUY-WAY Yard Sale. 

This year the event runs from Thursday, Aug. 9 through Saturday, Aug. 11. Registration is free and easy and gets your yard sale advertised along with thousands along the historic Lincoln Highway that meanders through Ohio, Indiana and Illinois.  

Simply call the Ada water department at 419-634-4045 and mention your address and the days of your yard sale. 

On the week of the sale, Lincoln Highway BUY-WAY Yard Sale volunteers from the Ada area will plant an official yard sale sign in your yard (which they will collect after your sale).
