Historical Society garage sale and Habitat for Humanity charity ride part of Riverboat Days fundraising
Summary
Organizers say the Aitkin Historical Society garage sale and a Habitat for Humanity ride are fundraising components of Riverboat Days; proceeds will support depot repairs and a local house build. Registration links were provided by the chamber.
Mallett said the Aitkin Historical Society's annual garage sale starts Thursday and is a longstanding fundraiser used to support depot repairs; she noted the society recently replaced the roof and plans to replace windows next. "Funds from this really kind of go back into that," Mallett said of the sale's proceeds.
She also described Habitat for Humanity's charity ride/tour joining the weekend to raise funds for a local house build and said registration is available on Habitat's pages and the chamber website (aitkin.com). Those partner events are part of a broader effort to concentrate many community fundraisers during the Riverboat Days weekend, Mallett said.
