Deals, Steals
and Squeals along the shores of the Mississippi
River! Residents and stores in 14 Historic
River Towns and Two States clean out their
attics, garages & basements to create
the Most Spectacular Garage Sale.
A trail of distinctive colored ribbons will
identify participating garage sales from
Alma on the southern end of the Wisconsin
side of Lake Pepin, north along Hwy. 35
through Nelson, Pepin, Stockholm, and Maiden
Rock to Bay City, WI. The trail then crosses
west to Minnesota at Red Wing, MN and heads
south on Hwy. 61 through Frontenac, Lake
City, Camp LaCupolis, Reads Landing, Wabasha,
Kellogg and Winona.
Bargain hunters can start anywhere along
the route beginning at about 8AM with closing
time set for about 5PM all three days. Rain
or Shine!
Mississippi Valley Partners sponsors the
100-Mile Garage Sale during the first weekend
of May each year. Local residents and bargain
hunters from distant cities enjoy church
lunches and shopping amid the spring scenery
of Lake Pepin and the Mississippi River
Valley.
Follow the balloons & ribbons in each
of the 14 towns. Mark your calendars!
