Garage sale to be held in effort to save classes

By Nick PalmStaff Writer

In an effort to save classes scheduled to be cut in the spring 2010 semester, City College is hosting a flea market and garage sale on Oct. 24.

The event, which runs from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, will take place on the street level of the Balboa Reservoir parking lot across the street from the Science Hall on Phelan Avenue.

“There will be a lot of household items, toys, furniture and books for sale,” said Milton Marks III, president of the City College board of trustees.

This will be the first flea market or garage sale of its kind at City College. If it turns out to be a success, it will become a reoccurring event, with funds going directly to the Associated Students.

“The idea is to raise money, but also to bring people together,” Marks said.
