NEWKIRK — The spring season has arrived, leading many to look at their homes for a little ‘spring cleaning.’ Those residents have a chance to downsize their homes at the annual spring citywide garage sale, which will be held May 7.

The event is held in conjunction with the city of Newkirk and Chamber of Commerce.

Those participating must obtain a $10 permit from City Hall to participate in the event, which will be advertised for potential customers.

“We will post a list of addresses on our Web site and on our Facebook page,” said Chamber President Debbie Leaming. “This is a good opportunity to clean up, a little spring cleaning, and it brings people to town. ‘One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.’”

For more information Marion, contact the Chamber of Commerce, at (580) 362-2155, or the city of Newkirk at (580) 362-2177.
