Mark your calendars for Fri Oct 28 and Sat the 29th for the ski sale in Bethel, Maine.  Volunteers: keep your eyes peeled for meeting notices and volunteer opportunities to be part of the fun team that does the magic each year.

Always the last weekend in October, the Ski Sale has provided a community service for thirty-five years by bringing new and used equipment from major ski shops and local and visiting skiers, with any proceeds benefitting the charitable purposes of the BOC. The club keeps 20% of the sale price for items that sell.

How to Get Items in the Sale 

Each item must have a signed & completed ski sale tag.  BEAT THE RUSH AND TAG YOUR GEAR IN ADVANCE SO ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS DROP IT OFF AT THE SALE!  Tags purchased and fully completed in advance are free for up to four items & 25 cents each after the 4th item.  They will be available at the Bethel Area Chamber of Commerce (824-2282, located at Bethel Station & on the web at www.bethelmaine.com) and True North Adventure Ware (824-2201) during business hours.  This offer ends at 3:00 p.m. on the Friday of the sale.

Equipment may also be tagged at the ski sale beginning  after 3:00 p.m. on Friday of the sale but subject to a .50/item tag fee for items that aren’t tagged in advance.  Look for signs designating the entrance for “WALK-IN SALES” at the sale venue.
