JLSJ Rummage Sale

Mark your calenders! The Rummage Sale, also known as “The Greatest Garage Sale on Earth,” is being hosted by the Junior League of San Jose.  The event will be held at the Santa Clara County Fairgrounds on Saturday, March 21 from 8 am to 6 pm. There will also be a Community Health & Services Fair from 9:30 am to 2:30 pm.  This exciting event will take place in the Expo Hall at the Santa Clara County Fairgrounds located at 344 Tully Road, San Jose, CA. Admission is free.

The biannual Rummage Sale is a huge fundraising and community event. There will be high quality rummage at rock bottom prices available for sale. Items for sale include electronics, clothing, toys, furniture, sporting goods, books and more! 

Experienced shoppers should arrive before the doors open in order to be one of the first people inside the Rummage Sale. This ensures getting the best pieces. At these prices, everything sells fast so arrive early!

In addition to the Rummage Sale, there will be a community health fair with over thirty-five healthcare and community agencies.  Activities include healthy eating demonstrations, free legal services, tax prep, vision and hearing screening, asthma services, dentistry education and much, much more!

Proceeds from the Rummage Sale go back to the community through the Junior League of San Jose.

As a Sustainer in the Junior League of San Jose, I can tell you first-hand that this is an amazing event. Not only can you purchase high quality rummage at rock bottom prices, but there are community services available and the peace of mind that comes with knowing all of the proceeds go back to the community through the Junior League. Love that!

For more information, please visit JLSJ.org. See you at the Fairgrounds!
