Donate Items for Yard Sale; Plan to Come Shop!
Hillsboro has a team of students going to Washington D.C. to compete in the National Finals of the We the People competition. As part of our fund raising efforts to pay for this trip, we are going to have a yard sale/car wash extravaganza on April 4, from 8am-2pm, out in front of the school. The car wash will start at 10am, if the weather cooperates. We are looking for any items that you would be willing to donate to the yard sale to help us raise money for the trip. This is an opportunity to clear out your basement, attic, garage or just your closet of those unwanted (but in great shape) items!
You may drop off all donations at Hillsboro High School in the Main Office.
Mark your calendar and come shop the fabulous selection on Saturday, April 4!
