The 28th Annual Wood County Humane Society Benefit Garage Sale opens its doors on Thursday at 9 a.m. and runs through Saturday at 2 p.m. in the Grandstands and Home & Garden Buildings at the Wood County Fairgrounds.

Donations of clothing, household items, electronics, furniture, toys, collectibles and other good and useful items will be accepted until 6 tonight at the fairgrounds. Signage will be placed during donation intake directing traffic. All donations to the sale are tax deductible and all donated items are subject to acceptance.

The sale will be held Thursday and Friday from 9 a.m.-6p.m. and Saturday from 9 a.m.-2 p.m. The sale features a variety of merchandise including household items, collectibles, books, crafts, hardware, lawn, garden, furniture and toys and encompasses over 22,000 square feet. Additionally, the sale will feature 25-cent clothing on Friday and a $3 fill-a-bag sale on Saturday.

Now in its 28th year, the sale is one of the humane society’s largest fundraisers, raising a record $28,000 in 2021 for the care of animals housed in the Minnebelle Conley Shelter, a no-kill humane shelter on Van Camp Road.
