NORWICH — The first annual community garage sale is taking place this Friday and Saturday, May 17 and 18, located throughout Norwich neighborhoods.

“Isn't it so exciting, our first annual community garage sale is happening this weekend,” said resident and Norwich Business Improvement District (BID) Board Member Mindy Chawgo.

“The garage sale is not a BID event, just an event we thought the community could benefit from,” she said.

Chawgo said you can pick up a paper copy of the garage sale map at the city office or download map.proxi.co to your phone to see what people have for sale as well as their open hours.
