Townwide Tag Sale Shouts the Recorder Headline!

I love getting good publicity, getting news printed in the paper. The Recorder’s Chase Scheinbaum called my yesterday, asking about our plan to hold a second Town Wide Tag Sale in Deerfield. Of course we are, it’s going to be on October 3, just the same as last year. The story merited a huge 48 point headline.

Chase wanted more. He wanted to know more and I told him this: “Several hundred people came to down for last year’s event. If you’re going to have a tag sale, you’re crazy to have it any other week.” He also included my wish—for 80 tag sales that day.

I knew that I couldn’t make it to tonight’s meeting, so instead I stopped over and had a visit with John Paciorek, one of the selectmen. He said he thought it was going to be fine, as did town Manager Bernie Kubiak, I hope that Chase isn’t disappointed that he won’t see me at the meeting.
