LincolnwayBuyWayThe Annual Lincoln Highway Buy-Way Yard Sale will be back Thursday, August 9, Friday, August 10, and Saturday, August 11, 2018.  This is the 11th year of the annual event across Illinois.  Yard sales will be concentrated in Illinois from the Mississippi River in Fulton, eastward, through the middle of the State.

Malta, IL, joins this year, assisted by their Seedling Mile organization.

Town-wide sales will be in Fulton on Friday and Saturday, August 10 and 11, organized by Fulton’s Chamber of Commerce.  Many of the Fulton sales will be multi-family.

To find the locations and schedules for the yard sales on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, including the maps of town-wide sales, on Wednesday, August 8, right after every participant has registered, please visit illinoislincolnhighwayassociation.org/.

The sponsor of the yard sales–the Lincoln Highway Association–is a charitable organization open to all, tracing its roots back to the original organizers of the Lincoln Highway, which is over 100 years old.  The Lincoln Highway Buy-Way began in Ohio and spread to neighboring states, spanning hundreds of miles across five states, from West Virginia to Iowa.  The Lincoln Highway Buy-Way is an annual event, the second full weekend of August.
