GREAT STRAIT SALE

 

 

The Great Strait Sale on the Strait of Juan de Fuca Scenic Byway Annually on the 2nd Saturday in September
The Great Strait Sale, first held in 2008, is a 61+ mile long series of yard sales, business specials, art and crafts sales and fundraisers along the length of the Strait of Juan de Fuca Hwy 112, a National Scenic Byway. The scenic byway runs from the junction of highways 101 and 112 at the east end to Neah Bay at the west end. 
The event originated as an opportunity for the Hwy 112 community to participate as a whole in an activity that would draw people from all the neighboring communities AND further.  It serves to introduce those visitors to what the Strait of Juan de Fuca Hwy 112 businesses and landscape has to offer. 
The communities along the highway may have a “flea market” style vendor area. Hwy 112 residents are encouraged to hold sales at their own homes or in their neighborhoods along the route and sign the sale visible to the drivers.  And civic groups often join in with fundraisers. 
It is a community-building event … a “fun-raiser”. It’s the Great Strait Sale happening each year on the 2nd Saturday in September.  Make it safe.  Make it fun.  Make it a clean sweep.
