The
Red River Valley Tourism Association (RRVTA) would like to invite
you to this year’s regional event of the season - the US Hwy 82/287
Yard Sale! Up and down 350 miles along the Hwy 82 and Hwy 287 corridors
in North Texas on June 6th and 7th there will be yard sales, garage
sales, sidewalk sales, farmers markets and flea markets. From as far as
Clarksville in the east, to Seymour in the west, south to Bowie and north
to Vernon, and points in between, you are sure to find something that will
peak your interest.
Along the way, participating towns will have maps available guiding
shoppers to the special sales throughout their communities.
The maps will
also direct travelers to the other destinations along the route. Some
towns will have city-wide yard sales
set up at a central location; while others
may have them spread throughout the community; still others will showcase
their downtown merchants or their flea markets/trade days.
Check us out on the web at www.redrivervalley.info for more information
to help plan your trip. On the website you will find links to the differing
communities that play a part in the sale along with contact information for
each town. The city websites will let you know where maps can be picked up.
The RRVTA site will also display a map with all of the participating towns.
Make plans now to travel through the Red River Valley region of North
Texas for the US Hwy 82/287 Yard Sale. You’ll discover fun for
the whole family—from heritage homes to historic downtowns, from art
to antiques, from cattle trails to cultural facilities.
