Bethlehem hosting huge weekend giveaway

Bethlehem is hosting one of the biggest yard sales in the town’s history this weekend, and everything is free.

The Big Bethlehem Giveaway takes place on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Residents can either place their unwanted items on the curb for free, or list items here.

The giveaway is an initiative with students in the Bethlehem Central School District’s Green Team. Their goal is to show kids how to live sustainably.

Middle School Assistant Principal Mark Warford said this is a great opportunity to show students that so many things we have can be reused.

“So we do reusable trays, reusable flatware, composting in our cafeteria, gardens in many of our schools, solar panels where the vast majority of our energy comes from, so we’re doing a lot in the district and this is one of the things we’re doing to connect with our community,” he said.

There are some guidelines as to what’s eligible for the event and what’s not.

Anything not taken away must also be removed by the homeowner. The town won’t remove it.
