Organizers of the Statesboro Service League Attic Sale are hoping to raise $30,000 from their annual fund raiser, which will be used to support various groups in Bulloch County.
Held at the Kiwanis Ogeechee Fairgrounds, the sale will feature a variety of items from baby clothes to toys to furniture and computers. Doors open at 7 a.m. and there is a $2 entry fee, which also enters customers into a drawing for door prizes, said Jodie Hendrix, chairperson for this year's sale.
"Best of all, all the money goes back into Bulloch County," Hendrix said. "It helps out a lot of projects."
Among the groups given funds by the Statesboro Service League are the Boys and Girls Club, Joseph's Home for Boys, the David H. Averitt Arts Center and Safe Haven as well as others.
This is the thirty-third annual Service League Attic Sale and it has remained popular over the years. In fact, it outgrew its previous location at the Grady Street Gym a few years ago and had to make the move to it's current location.
Mandy Fortune, co-chairperson of this year's sale, said he believes the popularity of the event is due to both the merchandise available as well as the fact that people know where the money is going.
"I think people know it's all going back to the community now," she said.
People have been known to line up a few hours before the doors open to have the first chance at the items. Baby clothes, in particular, are usually popular items, Hendrix said.
With this being the only fund raiser done by the Service League, members have been working since last Friday to get ready for Saturday. Hendrix said volunteers will likely put in more than 300 hours in preparation for Saturday.
