The annual Fall Quaker Yard Sale will be held on Saturday, Oct. 17 from 8:30 a.m. to noon at the Mattapoisett Friends Meeting, 103 Marion Rd. (Route 6).

All proceeds from this sale will be added to the 1827 Meeting House's restoration fund.

The architect’s estimate for the work is $245,000. To date, the meeting has raised $95,000 and the town of Mattapoisett has contributed $80,000 from its Community Preservation Fund. The project is expected to get underway soon.

Donations of items for the sale, from single to multiple gifts, can be made by calling 508-758-3579. No large pieces of furniture, appliances or electronics can be accepted.

Outdoor space is available to the general public for $10. Call Alan Harris at 508-748-0098 by Oct. 15, if interested.

The friends still have to raise $70,000 to complete the work. Gift certificates from area business, cash or checks, or donations of securities, books, coin and stamp collections are welcome.
