1. Give your election yard signs a second life
Give ONest your used Portland Schools YES signs!
Please help ONest (Overlook Neighborhood Sustainability Team) in our preparations for the Overlook Yard Sale/Free Share on July 16 & 17. We’ll re-purpose the (nice, bright yellow) Portland Schools signs for the yard sale. You can drop them by 3908 N. Concord (on the corner of Failing), or email ONest@ overlookneighborhood.org and we’ll pick them up.
Meanwhile, save those dates, and start collecting your yard sale treasures! And look for more information on the sale in the next Overlook Views!
