Gear Up for the Meyers Gear Swap!

On Nov. 7th the Meyers Community Foundation (MCF) will host the seventh annual Meyers Outdoor Gear Swap in the Westgate Center parking lot adjacent to the Divided Sky from 10am-2pm.

Looking for some sweet gear? Shop until you drop for skis, snowboards, bikes, paddle gear, climbing gear, camping equipment, and other outdoor toys. Cash or credit cards will be accepted.

If you’ve got quality summer or winter gear to sell, come on down. Merchandise registration will take place in the parking lot between 8:00am –9:30am; there is a $1 cash per item fee to register it for the swap. Please no equipment over five years old. Unsold merchandise can be picked up between 2pm-3pm; unclaimed items will be donated. Twenty percent of the proceeds will go to the MCF.

If you want to make a bigger contribution and increase your impact in the community, gear donations to the MCF are appreciated. The MCF is a 501(c)(3) dedicated to improving life in Meyers, California through its support and promotion of creative and sustainable local projects and community-enhancing events like the annual holiday tree lighting and the OMG Fun Run.
