Our Chairs this year are Betsy Anderson, (winner of the crown last year) and Dick Hoffman. Tickets are $10. Wendy Bollinger will be here to award the coveted trophy to the winner.

All proceeds received from your donations will go to the RAC committee to support our activities.

Donated items should be brought to the Clubhouse on Friday, 2/20. This includes all Baked/Food items. If you need assistance bringing your items to the clubhouse please let a committee member know.

Owners may have their own sale at their respective homes if they wish; please sign up on the auxiliary bulletin board in the clubhouse. If you plan on making homemade edible goods, please sign up on the bulletin board so the committee is aware.

If you can help, please sign up – we need help in Traffic control, Clubhouse and Hot Dogs.

Yes, we grill hot dogs on the deck and sell them along with chips and beverages; this is open to the whole community as well as visiting “shoppers”.

Please be aware that while the sale is ongoing, the traffic in Carlsberg will be one way only and parking will be permitted only on the even number side of the street;  so please factor that into your plans to enter or exit during the sale hours. Driveways could also be blocked by “shoppers”. Homeowners having their own sale may bring their unsold items down to the clubhouse after 1pm on Saturday.

ALL ITEMS MUST BE BOXED AND CLOSED; BOX MUST BE ABLE TO BE CLOSED. Do not block any walkways or doors, please! All unsold items will be donated to the Lake Wales Care Center
