Operation Tag Sale will take place Rain or Shine. Rather than locating the Tag Sale at First Church, we are asking friends to host tag sales in their own yards and  garages that weekend around the Town of  Fairfield. This is a great chance to purge so others can benefit from your treasures!

Shoppers from all over will come to Operation Hope at 636 Old Post Road on the days of the Tag Sale, 9am-5pm, to receive the location list. Also, feel free to shop our Finer  Things tables, which will be located in the parking lot.                      Operation Hope volunteers will be on hand               to answer questions.
