New Milford Junior Football League Running Townwide Garage Sale

The townwide garage sale, run by the Sisterhood New Milford Jewish Center for 22 years, is going to be run by the New Milford Junior Football League now that the synagogue is closing.

The synagogue, which had been an integral part of the New Milford community, will be closing its doors on River Road and will be merging with the Jewish Community Center of Paramus later this spring. 

"The garage sale has been a very successful community event," Sisterhood president and event chair, Sandy Nesoff said. "Many people in town love to participate in the sale and lots of people from outside the community look forward to spending a shopping day in New Milford as they visit garage sale homes."  

Nesoff said that the Sisterhood is happy to pass this project to the Junior Football League and hopes that the community continues to come out and support the children in town.

"The Junior Football League has been working with New Milford youth for many, many years. We are happy to pass this project to them with the hope that the community will support the children and provide a fun day for the town," Nesoff said.

As in the past, each participant will be able to have a garage sale at his/her own home. The cost per house will remain at $15.00. The League will do the advertising and publicity for the event to help ensure the greatest number of participants, as well as visitors for the sale.  

All proceeds will go the Junior Football League to help defray the cost of running their program.

This year's garage sale will be held on Sunday, June 2nd, rain or shine. Watch the New Milford Nuggets in the Twin-Boro News and New Milford Patch for League contact information.
