The 21st annual Lincoln Highway Buy Way Yard Sales across the State of Ohio is Aug. 7-9.

The historic Lincoln Highway was the first transcontinental road for automobile travel in the United States, dedicated in 1913 and extending from New York City’s Times Square to San Francisco’s Lincoln Park. Combined, various routes across Ohio comprise over 400 miles today.

Past year’s sales have seen families, neighbors, and groups of all kinds selling their wares from yards, porches, barns and garages; under tents and in open-air locations.

This novel idea began in 2005 and has spawned a variety of activities from Convoy, near the Indiana state line, to East Liverpool. A number of communities have group sales in public parks and other locations. The sales will run from Thursday-through-Saturday. Columbiana County communities along the route include East Rochester, Kensington, Hanoverton, Lisbon, St. Clair Township, Glenmoor and East Liverpool. Stark County communities along the route include Massillon, Perry Heights, Canton, East Canton, Robertsville and Minerva.
