United Methodist Church of Geneva is hosting its popular Fall Rummage Sale on Oct. 23-25.

The sale begins Thursday, Oct. 23, from 6 to 8 p.m. at the church, 211 Hamilton St. in downtown Geneva.

It continues all day Friday, Oct. 24 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and concludes Saturday, Oct. 25, from 9 a.m. to noon with the popular “Fill-A-Bag” option for $10.

There will be a wide assortment of gently used items, including various household products, furniture, clothes, books, games, children’s items, and more. Be sure to check out the upstairs parlor where they are selling jewelry and high-end fashion items.

The church has more than two floors of great bargains and the library is overflowing with homemade baked goods for sale.
