As part of the Waldoboro Community Yard Sale on August 30th from 9am to 2pm the Waldoborough Historical Society is offering spaces for you to bring your table and sell your items. For a $15.00 donation to the capital campaign for the expansion of the museum, we will save a space for you large enough for one 6 foot table (you must bring your own table) or if you need room for 2 tables it's a $25.00 donation
So you can sell your items in a high traffic area, take part in the community yard sale and visit the museum.
Antiques and sports collectables are going to be on sale from 2 different sellers.
Space is very limited and is available by calling President Bill Maxwell at 790-1307.

Historical Society President Bill Maxwell recently discovered a scale that was once used in Dr. Richard Watermans office at a local thrift shop. Along with Bill and four other dedicated members and friends of the museum, they all chipped in to purchase the scale and bring it home to the Waldoborough Historical Society Museum.
Thank you to the following men who assisted in saving this important piece of Waldoboro History.
John Reynolds, Trustee Eric Norden, Larry Scott and Associate Trustee Dana Davis.
