One of the busiest and most anticipated events of the summer, the World’s Longest Yard Sale, is slated to officially get underway this Thursday along the U.S. 127 Corridor route, but as early as Monday of this week, booths had already been erected and sales were being made in Clinton County.

Several vendors were busy Monday in the Snow Community of Clinton County, one of the busiest local 127 Sale centers, working to switch between getting merchandise out on display, and making sales to early shoppers who were already milling through the offerings.

At the Mountain View Recreation Park, where 127 Sale booths are stacked side by side throughout the park each year, vendors began arriving on Monday also, and by late Monday, some were also seen making early sales.

By Tuesday morning, activity at both locations had increased to a near flurry pace, as arriving vendors hustled to secure spots, erect tents and tables, and get merchandise out and displayed before shoppers begin finding their way down the 127 route by mid week.

The annual 127 Sale is in it’s 25th year this summer, and is situated along the U.S. 127 route for some 675 miles, between Gadsden, Alabama and Hudson, Michigan, also stretching through parts of four additional states, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee and Georgia.

Albany and Clinton County have long been one of the busiest stops along the entire 127 Yard Sale route.
