“We had a beautiful day and a great turnout. The prices were extremely reasonable and our customers were very appreciative,” said McCane.
Both staff and residents of Carriage Court assisted during the sales.
The yard sale items were kept under purple tents and the bake sale items were kept in shade on the facility’s porch.
