One of the best parts of the Golden Triangle GIANT Garage Sale, beyond the shopping, is the lovely, warm community of friends and neighbours. The camaraderie is evident on days like the Garage Sale: smiling faces, kind words and an atmosphere of genuine excitement and joy.

| The 2025 Golden Triangle GIANT Garage Sale was spectacular! |
When I moved into the area in 1999, the very first “Giant” Garage Sale was just me! But as my relationships grew, so did the event, until it became this annual milestone for nearly 100 households across a dozen streets. The calls typically begin in April: "Is the Garage Sale happening again this year? When is the Garage Sale?" It’s now something much bigger than me that we all look forward to and plan around.
It's especially heartwarming to hear about neighbours who choose to donate some or all of their proceeds to organizations that are meaningful to them. It’s a wonderful way to extend the impact of the day. In 2025, nearly $3,000 was raised for causes like:
- The Bethany Church Food Bank
- Ontario Veterinary College
- Wellspring Cancer Support
- Royal LePage Shelter Foundation
- The Royal Canadian Legion
- and The Salvation Army
I am looking forward to hearing about your delightful finds, successful sales, and any special stories you may have to share! It’s truly one of the things that makes this neighbourhood so special.
