Important Event Details
- 24th Annual Used Curriculum Sale and Expo Date (CANCELLED): Saturday, August 22, 2020 from 10:00am - 4:00pm. Exhibitor and HOME Inventory Clearance areas open at 10:00am. Used Curriculum Sale Begins at 1:00pm
- FREE Admission!!
- Location and Directions: The Augusta Armory provides easy access, lots of room, plenty of parking space, and allows us to offer much more to shoppers! However, due to the Armory's own schedule, our dates will fluctuate from year to year. We believe the advantages of the facility far out-way that small inconvenience, though!
- Parking, Safety and Security:
- Vendors and volunteers helping and/or setting up MUST enter through the rear overhead door. (Please note specific volunteer, vendor and seller arrival times since they may be different than Armory hours.) There will be no loading/unloading at the front entrance of the building during these hours. On Saturdays, loading/unloading is permitted at both the front and rear entrances of the building.
- During event hours, all vendors and participants must adhere to posted parking signs. No one will be permitted to park in back or in front of the building in posted fire lanes.
- The National Guard would like to know who is entering their building, so vendors, volunteers and participants may be subject to an ID check. (HOME leaders, volunteers and vendors should wear nametags at all times).
