Boy Scout Troop 53 Yard Sale: Boy Scout Troop 53 will be holding a yard sale at the Auburn Public Library from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. The scouts are looking for donations of gently used household items, such as sporting goods, small furniture, books, games and toys. No TVs or computers and due to continued safety recalls, no baby furniture, high chairs or car seats. All money raised from the yard sale will be used to fund the various trips and activities the scouts participate in during the year. Those interested in donating yard sale items should contact Diane Keyes at dmkeyes17@yahoo.com to arrange for pick-up or drop-off of items.
