FOP Annual Town Wide Yard Sale and Bike Sale

~ Rain or Shine ~


We have more than 55 yard sales registered all around town and on Town Field, making this year our biggest event yet!

Maps identifying the yard sale locations as well as highlighting items for sale will go on sale starting at 7am Saturday morning at the Community Center.

Each map is just $3.00 - a great time-saving value and another way to support the Friends' mission.

The bike sale will be held on the basketball courts and
will open at 9am - sorry, no sooner.

YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT IS NEEDED...

Proceeds from our fund raisers, as well as your continued donations, will go toward projects like:

Seasonal maintenance of the new Friends of Pepperell Town Ice Rink.

A security camera that would pan Town Field, including the playground, bandstand and other areas. Details to be determined.

Further enhancements to the play space. We're planning to jump right in to our next project of a paved walking track at Town Field. Imagine the opportunity for movement for young and old - bikes, scooters, strollers, walkers, joggers, roller blades...

Much needed improvements to the tennis courts behind Varnum Brook Elementary School.


FRIENDS OF PEPPERELL IS A SUN-SAFE ORGANIZATION

Providing tips and reminders to help you stay safe when you're outdoors in the sun...

  • Learn more about SunGuard™ — an easy-to-use laundry aid that washes UV protection right into everyday clothes.

  • Use a moisturizer with SPF 15 or 30 for everyday activities that don't put you in the sun for extended periods.

  • For long stretches of time spent outside, choose a "broad-spectrum" product. Look for the Skin Cancer Foundation's Seal of Approval for these types of products.

  • Always apply sunscreen 30 minutes before heading out into the sun. Reapply it again right after going outside, in case you missed any spots.

  • Reapply sunscreen every two hours.
