Mansfield will be hosting the annual Mansfield Tag Sale Trail on Saturday, April 27, from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The event allows local small businesses and residents to sell wares or personal items throughout Mansfield while buyers can follow a map to any sellers they want to visit.
The deadline to register as a seller for the tag sale is today. Registration is free and open to all Mansfield residents and Mansfield small businesses. Registered sellers will be listed on the map that will be available starting April 22. Maps can be found online at Mansfield Parks & Recreation, and hard copies will be available at the Mansfield Community Center free of charge.
The event will be based out of the Mansfield Community Center’s gymnasium. Sellers can set up their goods in the gymnasium or elsewhere in Mansfield, allowing shoppers to follow the map and explore the community. Both businesses and residents can register to sell. Spaces in the gymnasium are open to anyone who registers, whether or not they reside in Mansfield.
A press release from Mansfield Parks and Recreation said that the event is a great opportunity for residents to interact with the community.
“Whether you love the hunt for a bargain, need to purge your spring cleaning, or are just looking to finally get out of the house, this event has something for everyone!” the press release said.
According to the press release, home sales that are occurring for the tag sale may also be open on Sunday, April 28. The press release also gave examples of the variety of wares shoppers might find along the tag sale trail.
“Find treasures and treats from antiques, baby and children’s items, gardening and other tools, household items, furniture, outdoor equipment, rugs, books, quilts, and much much more!” it said.
The weather on the Saturday of the tag sale is currently predicted to be cloudy and in the 40s and 50s. Guaranteed dry 10’ by 10’ spots in the community center’s gymnasium are acquired on a first-come, first-served basis for registered sellers.
Those who wish to register must do so through the online registration portal on the Mansfield Parks and Recreation website. For those who want to collect a hard copy of the trail map, the community center is open from 5:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. on weekdays.
