4-H fabric, rummage sale this weekend

Quilters, crafters and sewing enthusiasts can get some great buys at the annual 4-H Fabric and Rummage Sale, 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday and 9 a.m.-noon Sunday at Fuji Park Exhibit Hall.

All proceeds from the sale support the Carson City-Storey County 4-H Council Education Scholarship Program, which provides higher education scholarships for local youths.

The event has become a popular annual tradition in Carson City, and this year, gently used rummage sale items will be available at the sale.

According to Jim Barcellos, Carson City 4-H and youth instructor, University of Nevada Cooperative Extension, "We held the first fabric sale eight years ago. It was so well received that we've made it an annual event ever since, and this year, we'll have other treasures. People really look forward to the sale and are very supportive."

4-H is a youth leadership and development program of the University of Nevada Cooperative Extension.
