Prep begins for annual US 12 garage sales

Preparations are underway in many homes, organizations and businesses across U.S. 12 for Michigan’s Longest Garage Sale, an annual event taking place August 12, 13 and 14.
Kristopher Martin, project coordinator for the event, said prospective participants interested in hosting a garage sale are encouraged to register their sale for free on the new U.S. 12 Heritage Trail website: us12heritagetrail.org.
Sign up must be done by Aug. 8.
Anyone who registers their sale online will be a part of the list of sales included in the interactive online map and a page listing all the sales, which can be viewed or printed one week prior to the sale.
Since the sale started in 2003, it has taken place during the second weekend of every August.
