The Highway 27 Yard Sale is set to bring many travelers and miles of the best deals and bargains to Summerville. This event began in Northwest Georgia in the late ’90’s as an alternate route for lost tourist from another yard sale event. It now brings in its own tourist and has expanded past the original route. Summerville Main Street is sponsoring Yard Sale In The Park at Dowdy Park. This lends locals the opportunity to clean out the clutter and turn it into cash by setting up a booth on Friday and Saturday, August 2-3.  Used junk, antiques, handmade crafts, and food will be an  attraction for shoppers.

A variety of over 22 vendors with yard sale items, antiques, collectibles, household goods, and more will be located in the park. Small Town BBQ, Valerie’s Fried Pies, and Little Joe’s Bounce House will also be on site for the public’s shopping and dining enjoyment. On Saturday, August 3 an arrival of the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum Passenger Train is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. at the Summerville Depot.  The depot will be open to the public from 11:30 a.m. – 2:30 p.m. Souvenirs and professional train photography will be located inside the depot during these hours.
