ANNUAL YARD SALE

𝐖𝐄 𝐇𝐀𝐕𝐄 𝐒𝐎 𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐘 𝐏𝐄𝐎𝐏𝐋𝐄 𝐓𝐎 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐊!
Our heartfelt thank you goes to our friends at Ward Transport & Logistics Corp. for their continued support and kindness for providing the Blair Regional YMCA with the trailers to conduct our Pretzel and Yard Sale fundraiser. The Ward Family has always been a staple in our community and in our ability to be 𝐁𝐄𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐓𝐎𝐆𝐄𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑.
We also want to send out a very special 𝕋ℍ𝔸ℕ𝕂 𝕐𝕆𝕌 to Adam Conrad and The The Adam Conrad Team – Perry Wellington Realty for your support in supplying a truck for our Yard Sale! We would not have made it though the event without your help.
Our 𝔸𝕟𝕟𝕦𝕒𝕝 𝕐𝕒𝕣𝕕 𝕊𝕒𝕝𝕖, which benefits the Scholarship Program at the Blair Regional YMCA, saw a record turnout and raised over $11,000 to aid members of the #BlairCounty #community!
We could not have pulled this off without the help of Tommy at Fiore True Value/Just Ask Rental and Home Depot Altoona! Thank you!
We also want to thank all of the volunteers and staff who made this year’s Yard Sale possible! It takes dedication and determination to pull these events off and we have the most amazing team of people surrounding us at the #BRY!
