Strong Turnout Expected

Community-Wide Garage Sale planned in Ponoka Aug. 18-20

Jul 21, 2023 | 1:24 PM

Ponoka residents are invited to host a garage or yard sale as part of the Town’s annual Community-Wide Garage Sale event from Friday, August 18 to Sunday, August 20.

Officials say this town-wide event is an opportunity for residents to sell unwanted items and explore new-to-you treasures across the community.

To participate, simply set up your own garage or yard sale at your home. Although the event will take place from August 18 to 20, you can choose to set up your garage or yard sale on one, two or all three days.

The Town of Ponoka says it will create a Community-Wide Garage Sale map again this year. To enter your garage or yard sale onto the online map, please email recreation@ponoka.ca or call 403- 783-0131.

Please provide the Town with your first and last name, physical address, and the dates and times of your garage sale no later then Friday, August 11, 2023. The map will be posted to the Town’s website at ponoka.ca/p/community-wide-garage-sale the week of August 14.

Residents are also encouraged to post their garage or yard sale to the outdoor bulletin board at the Ponoka Arena Complex (4410 54 Street).

“We are excited to once again organize a community-wide garage sale event that will not only be a lot of fun for the community, but is also expected to attract visitors from surrounding areas to Ponoka,” said Andrew Jones, Manager of Parks, Recreation and Facilities for the Town of Ponoka. “For the past two summers, the Community-Wide Garage Sale has had a strong turnout and been a great success,” he added.
