Saturday, June 1st – 9th Annual McDonald Area Community Wide Yard Sales

McDonald Area Community Wide Yard Sales averages over 50+ yard sales each year, and last year we had an additional 20+ vendors at the park. This year’s event is scheduled for Saturday June 1st. For additional details see McDonaldPennsylvania’s Facebook page.
This will be our 9th year holding this event, and last year’s was the biggest so far. Not only can residents have a yard sale at their home, but we also have a space for out-of-towners to come and sale at Heritage Park (this was a big turn out last year). Vendors and Crafters welcome!
There is also a pancake breakfast at the McDonald Trail Station from 8am to 12pm happening in town that day. Eat-shop, shop-eat.
A map of the registered yard sales will be available a few days prior to the event. Click here for event flyer
