Events
The Marlboro Alliance supports a number of events throughout the year to bring our community members together. Town Meeting Lunch in March, the Summer Sale in July, and the Marlboro Fair in September are just a few of the annual events we organize. In past years, we also organized special celebrations for our town such as for Storm Irene Recovery and our Bicenquinquagenary anniversary.

Donation Guidelines
We accept clean and usable clothing, household goods, tools, as well as some electronics (less than three years old and fully functional OR antique or special interest) and books.
We PREFER NOT TO ACCEPT, as many were left over last year and had to be disposed of by our small group of clean-up volunteers.
Any accepted item listed above that is broken or damaged (including very dirty since we have no way to clean items before selling them).
magazines, textbooks, cookbooks older than 5 years (unless they are considered a classic)
General use electronics older than 3 years and/or not fully functional . Old electronics that could be considered collectible/antique or of special interest will be accepted.
Strollers. Unfortunately, last year we had several strollers donated and the majority were still at the sale grounds on Sunday after free day. There are many resources online for passing along children’s goods, strollers and car seats included. We encourage you to explore those avenues to donate your items.
