The Towanda Parent-Teacher Organization's purpose is to promote a better relationship and understanding between parents, teachers and students, and to provide a service to school and community.

Membership consists of faculty members, parents, and other interested members of the community.

Sales are usually held each spring and fall. Dates are determined by input from the sellers, and considering other area events and holidays that might impact the number of buyers and sellers.

A small fee is charged to each garage to be included on a map and with the list of sale locations and items that is distributed, and in the group ad in the area newspaper(s).

Sellers are asked to prioritize the items they have for sale since the amount listed for each garage depends on space available.

Love God...love each other...minister to people.
