The Red River Valley Tourism Association (RRVTA) would like to invite you to this year’s regional event of the season - the US Hwy 82/287 Yard Sale! In North Texas and Southern Oklahoma on June 1-2, there will be yard sales, garage sales, sidewalk sales, farmers markets and flea markets all along 425 miles of the Highway 82 and Highway 287 corridors and beyond! From as far as New Boston in the east, to Munday and Seymour in the west, south to Henrietta and north to Quanah, and Frederick and Hugo, Oklahoma and points in between, you are sure to find lots of treasures!

Along the way, participating towns will have maps available guiding shoppers to the special sales throughout their communities. Some towns will have city-wide yard sales set up at a central location, or spread throughout the community.  Still others will showcase their downtown merchants or their flea markets/trade days.

Check us out on the web at www.redrivervalley.info for more information to help plan your trip. On the website you will find links to the various communities that play a part in the sale along with contact information for each town. The city websites will let you know where maps can be picked up. The RRVTA site will also display a map with all of the participating towns.

Make plans now to travel through the Red River Valley region of North Texas and Southern Oklahoma for the US Hwy 82/287 Yard Sale.  You’ll discover fun for the whole family—from heritage homes to historic downtowns, from art to antiques, from cattle trails to cultural facilities.  Participating US Hwy 82/287 Yard Sale communities and local maplocations are listed below.
