The dates for the 2008 61 Mile Yard Sale are
Thursday evening through Saturday August 28 - 30.
We have been asked, by the Jackson Chamber of Commerce,
to extend the yard sale into Jackson MO. The yard sale's new official
South start/stop point is High Street, directly South of the Court
House, in Jackson MO. We are excited to work with the Jackson Chamber
of Commerce on the yard sale. We encourage other cities and towns along
the sale route to contact us to discuss how we can help bring more
commerce to your area.
We would like to thank
everyone who joined us for the 2007 sale. The
61 Mile Yard Sale was a huge success because of all of the great
sellers and shoppers! There were an estimated 300+ yard sales on the 61
Mile Yard Sale this year. There were also shoppers from all over the
country. The shoppers we found out about were from Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky,
Tennessee, Wisconsin, Alabama, New Jersey, Texas, Nevada, and Indiana.
Again, we had many comments, from businesses and individuals, about the
great job the yard
sale did in bringing traffic and commerce to the Highway 61 area.
Be sure to check out this year's yard sale photos which are posted on the Photos Page.
This is the most unique
yard sale
you've ever seen.
You will find everything
from
custom choppers to custom built outhouses, antiques to traditional yard
sale items,
and everything in between.

Information
We have had a lot of questions
about registration fees and the times of the yard sale.
There
are no registration fees to be involved in the yard sale. All a person
has to do is set up and sell. If you do not have a spot to
sell at
along Highway 61, you can contact us for more information regarding
places to sell.
There
are no set times for the yard sale. The times any spot opens and closes
are up to each seller. We do believe that most sellers will be selling
by 7:00 a.m. on Friday and Saturday.
If you plan to sell food at your yard sale, please check with your
local health inspector for current rules and any information you might
need.
