3rd Annual Lincroft Village Yard Sale, April 28, 2007

The Lincroft Village Green Association (LVGA) sponsored its third Annual Community Yard Sale on April 28, 2007, to benefit the LINCROFT VILLAGE GREEN PARK, located on the corner of Newman Springs and Phalanx Roads. All registration and donation proceeds received will supplement upgrades to the Village Green.  New this year, residents had the option to donate goods in addition to hosting their own yard sale at their homes. Donated goods were sold at the park on yard sale day by LVGA volunteers.

Congratulations to the managers and thank you to the volunteers for the Community Yard Sale! The sale at the Village Green netted $2,940 while home-based sales added an additional $840. It was gratifying to see the flurry of activity at the park and the generous and cheerful attitude of so many people working together. There were over 50 volunteers that helped accumulate, set up, organize and sell the items donated by our community. The Ladies Auxiliary of the Lincroft Fire Department conducted a bake sale at the Village Green during the sale. There were 9 Boy Scouts from Troop 100 that volunteered to help on the day of the sale and another 7 local teenagers that camped out to act as security overnight.

We also want to thank Middletown Parks and Recreation Department for their support and cooperation, especially Gregg Silva and Mike McCoy. We are grateful to Hitmen Cleanouts Company for debris removal and Pack Rat for donating a storage pod for the sale.
