Fourteenth ANNUAL "GREAT U.S. 50 YARD SALE"
"THE NATION'S YARD SALE"
MAY 17-19, 2013
GENERAL INFORMATION
The thirteenth annual Great U.S. 50 Yard Sale will be held Friday-Sunday,
May 17-19, 2013. The yard sale started in 2000, stretching across most of
Indiana. The goal is for it to grow into a Coast-to-Coast event held each
year on the weekend before the Memorial Day weekend. The Great U.S. 50 Yard
Sale also serves to promote tourism along U.S. 50, to unite the many diverse
communities, to provide opportunities for fund raising by civic organizations,
to aid the environment through recycling, and to serve as an opportunity
for individuals to enjoy a great weekend of sales.
While promoted as a yard sale, the actual sales are limited only by the
imagination and law. Individual communities and businesses along U.S. 50
are encouraged to have special promotions during this weekend. Vendors,
especially antique and craft dealers, from all over the U.S. are welcome to join
us.
This is a non-sponsored event, meaning that it is not promoted by any
particular organization, but represents the efforts of volunteers and those who
wish to promote their communities. As such, the nature of the sale will
vary along the route. U.S. 50 is Constitution Avenue in Washington, DC.
It is Wyatt Earp Blvd in Dodge City, Kansas. It crosses mountains
and deserts, as well as farm land. In some communities U.S. 50 is now a
super highway and the sale route might follow Old 50. With such
diversity, many decisions will have to be made at the local level. The best
source for specific and up-to-date information is to follow the Connect-to-County
links.
The official yard sale is over three days. There are no set hours. (If
you have ever had a yard sale, you know that advertising set hours never works).
Also, given the nature of yard sales (and the history of last year), it is
probable that many individual households will not decide to participate until
just a day or two before the sale dates. The best option for buyers is to
locate a participating county and then just head down the road.
IMPORTANT: Please note that all sales are subject to local laws. Also,
no one is to set-up, sell, nor park on the state right-of-way at any time.
U.S. 50 is both the Loneliest Road in America and an extremely busy
highway. Safety is a primary concern. All sellers should allow for
parking and everyone should avoid being on the state right-of-way.
SPREAD THE WORD
The National Coordinator for the U.S. 50 Yard Sale is Tom Taylor of North
Vernon, Indiana. totaylor@seidata.com
While the sale is still in
its infancy, last yearıs experience showed if you build it, they will come.
A key to making this sale a success is to let people know it exists.
Please forward the www.route50.com
site to friends.
Media outlets are encouraged the include information about the yard sale in
their broadcasts/publications. Merchants along U.S. 50 are encouraged to
post signs advertising the event. Especially desired would be volunteers
willing to receive some flyers via e-mail and then to print and distribute them,
either by posting them in a community or having them available as handouts in a
shop. Contact totaylor@seidata.com
if you want some flyers. You
do not need permission to spread the word, as all publicity is welcome as a
key to the event's success.
COORDINATE A COUNTY
The nature of such a large event requires the need for coordination on a local
level. The word coordination is perhaps too large as the person is
more of an information source than a coordinator. Businesses,
organizations, and individuals set up their own sales and the coordinator really
has no responsibility in those areas.
The primary responsibilities of a
County Coordinator are:
1. Help advertise and promote the sale within the county
2. If there are needed decisions relative to local needs, make those
decisions. (Examples:
U.S. 50 is now a bypass, so a decision is made to follow Old 50. or a small community wishes to have a community-wide
yard sale, as opposed to limiting
it just to U.S. 50.)
3. Serve as a contact for two groups of people - Those from out of town
looking for selling space and
locals with space to rent along U.S. 50. (The easiest thing is just to keep a list of those
with space to rent, either on a web page or where it can be quickly e-mailed back.
The coordinator is not involved in setting prices nor any other aspect of deal
making other than just providing information about who is willing to rent space.)
4. Answer e-mailed questions from those seeking information.
5. Contact local law enforcement a week before the sale and ask that they
help patrol the route during the sale, particularly factors related to
safety.
It is essential that a local coordinator be on e-mail. It would be ideal
if the coordinator could have a web page where information could be listed as to
known sales sites, contact information for those offering space for rent,
hotel/motel information, and restaurant information. This, however, is
ideal - not required.
NOTE: IN BECOMING A COORDINATOR, THE INDIVIDUAL AGREES TO HAVE THEIR
CONTACTS LISTED ON THE CONNECT-TO-COUNTY LINK ON THE
< WWW.ROUTE50.COM
> SITE.
Ideal candidates for county coordinators would be local tourism officials, local
newspapers, local radio stations, antique stores, etc. Media are welcome
to become a local sponsor and use the event for their own promotional purposes.
This stated, we also welcome individual community-spirited citizens who
just want to help.
If no coordinator is listed for your county and you want more information about
becoming the coordinator, contact < totaylor@seidata.com
>.
COMMUNITY IDEAS
The Great U.S. 50 Yard Sale is a perfect opportunity for schools, churches
and civic organizations to make money. It can also be coordinated with
other community activities into an overall theme.
1. Recycling - Many communities have spring recycling days. The
most environmentally
friendly type of recycling is for the item to be put to a new use by someone else. If your community has a
recycling day, why not schedule it the week after the sale? Rather
than taking a working stove to the landfill, try selling it first.
2. Business Promotions - U.S. 50 remains the Main Street of many
communities in America. Perhaps
the local Chamber of Commerce can encourage sidewalk sales and other promotions
during the Great U.S. 50 Yard Sale. Motels and Restaurants can also run special
promotions for the sale weekend.
3. The Yard Sale as Fund Raiser - It is likely that there will be
out-of-town sellers looking for
places to set-up. A school, church, or civic organization can locate a large parking lot or field and
set-up space for vendors. This space could be rented out for the weekend.
If you gathered enough vendors, you could also charge a small fee for parking
or for entry.
(This
fee is not taxed or usable for a tax
deduction it goes straight to you wallet.)
The Great U.S. 50 Yard Sale is generally free, but most
potential buyers would be willing to pay a dollar or two parking/entry fee if they knew
there were, say, 100 vendors in one spot. If the local Band Boosters can attract
100 vendors and charge them, say, $30 set-up fee for the weekend, that is
$3,000. If 2,000 people visit and pay $2 entry fee each, that is another $4,000.
The organization earns $7,000 that weekend. It is less time involvement than a
month-long candy sale and 100% of the proceeds stay with the organization.
The money made by the boosters
may or may not be taxed before arriving at it's final destination. You may have
to check any online tax preparation
programs to be completely sure of this.
4. Sowing Seeds - The Great U.S. 50 Yard Sale attracts visitors along
a route they might otherwise not
travel. Having once visited, it is likely that many will want to return at other times of the
year. This is a great opportunity for communities and businesses to have promotional
materials available for distribution.
INFO FOR SELLERS
The fun of The Great U.S. 50 Yard Sale is that it can include the sale of
anything legal. Each seller is in charge of his/her own sales site. In many
ways, the U.S. 50 Yard Sale could best be described as ³regular yard sales, but
everybody having them the same day. The following additional information
may be helpful-
1. Safety and the Law - All sellers must abide by local laws
regarding such sales. All sellers
should also consider safety, being particularly careful about providing off- road parking for buyers.
No one is allowed to sell, nor park on state right-of-way.
2. Individuals Living Along U.S. 50 - Persons selling in their own
yards are not required to do anything (subject to local
law) other than arrange their own sale for May 17-19, 2013. As a courtesy,
however, it would be nice to contact the County Coordinator
so that she/he has some sort of idea of where sales will be located.
3. Businesses - As with individuals, businesses do not need
permission to participate in
this event, but are encouraged to help promote the U.S. 50 Yard Sale by referring to it by name in any
related advertisements. They are also encouraged to inform the County Coordinator
of their efforts so that she/he will have that information. Local antique
shops are particularly encouraged to coordinate with one another and to help to
promote this event.
4. Sellers from Out of Town Needing Space - You are first encouraged
to check the Connect-to-County
list to find participating areas within your region. Please check this regularly as the list
will change weekly all the way up to sale week. You should then contact
the appropriate County Coordinator to ask for a list of individuals/clubs/ businesses
offering space for rent. You may then directly contact those offering space.
5. Sellers Living Near U.S. 50 - One lesson learned from last year
was that many people who lived
from a block to a couple miles off U.S. 50 wanted to participate in the sale, but did so by
erecting signs such as Yard Sale, Three Blocks South.
While persons are welcome to do this, experience
shows that many buyers, particularly
out-of-town buyers, focus on making a ³straight run² on U.S. 50 and do not go to these side sales.
We welcome all sellers - the more sellers to more buyers who will come. This
stated, we also believe most sellers will benefit by finding space on U.S. 50.
INFO FOR BUYERS
The nature of this event is such that it is impossible to provide anyone with a
list of sales prior to the sale dates. Many sales
will be held by individual families in their own yards and they do not need
permission of the organizers to participate. The best advice for buyers is to go to
the Connect-to-County page. Locate a county that has a coordinator and click the
link to that person to ask for information about that countyıs participation.
It was this writerıs experience last year (the second year of the sale) to travel a
twenty-five mile section of U.S. 50, not knowing what to expect. What was found was
75+ sales, including several sites with multiple vendors. (There was
another stretch of about fifteen miles where I found no sales.)
While the sale route will generally follow U.S. 50, it may detour in specific
communities to follow the Old
Route or for other routes. Where communities make such changes, it is anticipated they
will post signs.
Please remember to park safely and never park on state right-of-way.

If you are planning your own
journey from Coast to Coast,
or even a shorter road trip, why not take a break
during
your travels and stay in a luxury rental at a timeshare resort.
Available
in various cities along US Route 50,
timeshare
rentals are a great alternative to standard hotels.
After
all, why rent a hotel room night after night when you can rent
an apartment equipped with a kitchen and private bedrooms for the same price?
