PRIEST RIVER — The Priest River Chamber of Commerce hosts Picker’s Day Saturday, May 5 in downtown Priest River.

Gather your goods and come downtown to sell them to yard salers during the traditional yard sale weekend, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Space rental is $15 for 19 feet. Contact the chamber at 208-448-2721.

The chamber is also accepting items to sell.

All proceeds go toward the Fourth of July Fireworks display in Priest River.

The chamber will also be holding Bingo night at the Priest River Senior Center Friday, June 1, to raise money for the fireworks display.

The cost is $10 per card. Bingo will be conducted by the Priest River Happy Agers and starts at 6 p.m. Prizes will be homemade desserts.

Also, drivers through Priest River can “fill the boot” Memorial Day weekend. Firefighters from the West Pend Oreille Fire District will be standing on Highway 2 and Highway 57 Friday and Saturday, May 25-26, to collect donations for the fireworks display.

The Priest River Chamber of Commerce needs $6,000 for the display, held at dusk over the Pend Oreille River the evening of July 4.
