The fabric and many other items will be for sale during the annual yard sale Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Jordan said volunteers have been getting ready two days a week over the past two months to prepare for the fundraiser. “We have been collecting stuff all winter long. Everything is priced to sell, but we are not giving it away,” said Jordan. Proceeds from the event are put towards the WLU scholarship fund and used to help with the Foss Mansion’s $8000 a year heating bill. Daryn Slover/Sun Journal
