SPRING 2017 SPORTSMAN LAKE PARK YARD SALE
The event was what you’d expect: A giant yard sales with almost every possible item for sale.
At several points during the day, motorists attempting to enter the park were stacked up all the way to Highway 31. Nonetheless, traffic was well behaved with no incidents. Everything ran smoothly as thousands of people made their way into the park throughout the day.
The Spring Yard Sale originally came about to help both city and county residents who wished to have garage and yard sales of their own, but for a variety of reasons, could not.
Marketing Director of Cullman County Parks Sara Teichmiller explained it this way:
“Inside the city limits, people have to apply for a permit hold to these sales on their own property. It is a hassle for people to do that. Out in the county, attracting foot traffic into a personal sales event is next to impossible. So … we decide to eliminate all those challenges and create a safe, permit-free, well-marketed Yard Sale event that everyone – vendors and citizens alike – can attend.”
