The fundraising garage sale is an annual event at CIBC in Castlegar

On Saturday May 5, 2012 the CIBC staff in Castlegar are holding their annual garage sale to raise money for B.C. Children’s Hospital. Garage sale times are from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.  with a hot dog sale around lunch time.

Donations for the garage sale can be dropped off at the Castlegar CIBC on Friday May 4, from 6pm to 8 pm or the morning of May 5th. This event will take place rain or shine at the Castlegar CIBC.

"We're hoping for sunshine," said organizer Colleen Buchanan, financial advisor at CIBC. "Otherwise, we'll move it inside the branch."

Buchanan urges residents to come out and check out the garage sale and support a great cause."All the proceeds go to B.C. Children's Hospital," she said. "CIBC runs a campaign every year so it fits right in with that."

Helping Buchanan out with the garage sale is Tammy Kellendonk.
