Students participates in two campus yard sales

By Emily Royalty

The snow has melted and summer is right around the corner, which means it’s that time of year again: spring cleaning.  Luckily, FSU is offering some great ways to get rid of your unwanted treasures.
Sigma Tau Delta International English Honor Society is holding a yard sale fundraiser next Thursday, April 28.  They’re selling everything: books, DVDs, household goods, clothing, accessories, small appliances, or random unwanted items.
Last semester’s yard sale raised over $250.00 and provided funds to purchase club t-shirts; send members to a Shakespeare conference; and host events, including open mic nights and alumni networking events.
To donate on the day of the event, swing by the Hammond Main Lounge any time between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. to drop off donations. To donate in advance, please contact Courtney Gustafson at [email protected].
If you are looking to start your summer earnings, the campus is also hosting its own annual Campus-Wide End-of-the-Year Yard Sale on Saturday, May 7 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the Main Quad and 22/30 Cedar Parking Lot.
It costs $2 to rent a table.  Money raised from table rentals will go the Fitchburg State Relay for Life Team. Tables are limited on a first-come, first-serve basis.  Sign up in the Student Development Office.
Items not sold and in good condition will be donated to the Salvation Army and Habitat for Humanity ReStore in Leominster.
