The Niagara-on-the Lake Rotary Club’s Gigantic Garage Sale is ready to go this weekend, with a preview Friday evening.

Rotarians are calling it “the largest ever sale of its kind in NOTL,” and with a large indoor space at the Cornerstone Church town campus building on Niagara Stone Road, as well as tents outdoors for larger items such as furniture and sports equipment, it might well be.

The Friday, May 13 preview, from 6 to 9 p.m., comes with a $25 entry fee, and is an opportunity to beat the crowds and shop early. 

It continues Saturday, May 14 and Sunday, May 15, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., with free entry and free parking both days.

There are more than 400 paintings and prints alone, 29 area rugs, sofas, kitchen stools, many dining room and bedroom suites, desks, office chairs, wall units, dishes, kitchen utensils, appliances and electronics, sports equipment, linens, toys, outdoor furniture, and many miscellaneous items.

All proceeds are to benefit local and international children’s charities.

Items not sold at the event will be donated to local charities such as Newark Neighbours, Raft, Habitat for Humanity, Niagara Furniture Bank, Christian Benefit Shop, and the Salvation Army.

Dianne Smith has a look at the many items spread out on several tables for the Rotary sale.
