BENNINGTON, Vt. — The annual Barn Sale fundraiser benefiting United Counseling Service (UCS) takes place September 16-17, 2023, at the Northshire Civic Center at Riley Rink, located at 410 Hunter Park Road in Manchester. 

 

Shoppers can stop by the sale from 9am-4pm on Saturday and 9am-3pm on Sunday to find clothing, furniture, kitchen equipment, home décor, serve ware, antiques, and more.

 

All proceeds support UCS' services in the Northshire, which include outpatient mental health and counseling, psychiatry, substance use disorder services, youth and family services, and Head Start/Early Head Start. Last year's Barn Sale raised over $75,000 for important mental health services in the Northshire. 

 

The number of people served by UCS programs across Bennington County grows each year as the need for mental health, substance use, and other support services continues to increase. UCS served over 3,000 individuals this year alone.
