Volunteer Information

The Barn Sale is one of the largest rummage sales events in the area.In its 35th consecutive year of operation. The sale is rotated among local Catholic parishes in the area to benefit people in need and build a sense of community outreach. Proceeds from the sale are used to pay down our parish debt.

We need several hundred volunteers to make the Barn Sale a success, that means we need YOU! Many hands make light work.

This is a wonderful project for clubs/service organizations and for those looking for community service hours.

We need Volunteers ...

Every Saturday morning March 30 through July. Come once or come every time. Come for an hour or stay all morning!
September 13th through the 20th to prepare for the sale
September 21st and 22nd, the sale dates.
