DAR Yard Sale Sept. 3rd

To add to the festivities of Uniquely Uxbridge Day, the Uxbridge chapter of the DAR (Daughters of the American Revolution) will hold a yard sale at its historic property across from the Town Common from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sun., September 3rd. Browse the tables for items contributed by DAR members including jewelry, linens, old tools, and a treasure trove of miscellany. In addition, the local DAR chapter is a sponsoring organization for the Wreaths Across America program. The goal of 1000 wreaths to be placed on graves of veterans in St. Mary’s Cemetery on December 16th has been achieved. Additional contributions will be gratefully accepted for wreaths to be placed in other local cemeteries. The cost of a single wreath is $17, but any donation toward the effort to recognize our veterans is welcome. Look for the special Wreaths Across America display at the September 3 Yard Sale. Would you like to become a member of DAR? Any woman over the age of 18 who can trace her direct lineage to a person who fought for or supported the American Revolution is eligible to join. This will be the perfect time to talk to a DAR member about the organization or to ask questions about the membership process. But don’t let any of that get in the way of a great yard sale experience!
