CORNELIUS – On Friday, Oct. 28, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Saturday, Oct. 29 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Surface Products Showroom will host a National Yard Sale, selling granite and other stone supplies to benefit the troops. Three percent of all proceeds sold at 623 Northline Drive during the event will go to Homes for Our Troops, an organization that builds homes for veterans with specific needs.

“These soldiers have given their blood, sweat, tears and in some cases part of themselves to defend our rights and freedoms in this country,” said Jon Lancto, owner of Surface Product Showroom. “It is a privilege to give something back to them.”
