Annual Rummage Sale

Saturday, June 6
9:00AM to 3:00PM

Sixty homes participated in last year’s TETNA rummage event, and to carry on the tradition, TETNA expects another successful rummage day on Saturday, June 6. Neighbors have been collecting, organizing and pricing things they no longer need in hopes to earn a few dollars in the process.

Great reasons to join us for the TETNA Rummage:

It’s healthy: Walking the neighborhood is great exercise
It saves you money: Affordable deals help your bank account
It’s good for the environment: Reduce, reuse and recycle
Its fun!
