The Duwamish Longhouse and Cultural Center is holding a community garage sale this Saturday, Aug. 15, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and the public is encouraged to bring items to sell and/or donate.

"It's a win-win," said Cindy Williams, operations manager of the Longhouse. "If you stay with your booth you keep all the money less 10-percent,which goes toward the Duwamish legal fund. Otherwise, you can drop off donated items, labeled with prices, and what we sell would all go to the fund."

Williams, the daughter of Cecile Hansen, Chairwoman of the Duwamish Tribe, said that at the end of Saturday's sale, unsold items that were donated will be given to another charity. The Duwamish legal fund goes toward fees incurred in its battle for federal recognition of the tribe.

Hansen will be serving salmon lunches and her famous fry bread at the garage sale.
