As the sun rose on June 9, a line snaked from Underhill Arena past Merrill Gymnasium to Central Avenue, then up the sidewalk to Lewiston Middle School, a full block away.

Hundreds of people bearing bags, wagons, and cash waited patiently for the start of Clean Sweep, the annual yard sale of items donated by �ֲ���ý students as they left campus for the summer.

Clean Sweep is at once a fundraiser, a drive for local nonprofits, and a way to reduce the college’s and the community’s environmental impact. Two local organizations, John F. Murphy Homes and SHARECenter, organize and run the sale, then split the proceeds. In turn, �ֲ���ý offers the use of Underhill Arena for free.

For everyone involved, the Clean Sweep paid off. �ֲ���ý saved thousands of dollars on waste-transport fees , the sale raised nearly $33,000 — a record total — and leftover items went to numerous local organizations.

“It’s pretty awe-inspiring,” said �ֲ���ý Sustainability Manager Tom Twist, “to see the nonprofits clean and set up and distribute the amount of material that might otherwise go into a landfill.”

After moving through the well-managed line, shoppers who entered Underhill were greeted with a cornucopia of college life. Bedding lined the walls. Bicycles were parked in a row. Buyers walked through a forest of floor lamps, picked through toiletries, or fished for the perfect yoga mat. People who wanted rugs pulled them from underfoot.

“It was literally shoulder to shoulder from 8 o’clock to 10:30 before it started to subside,” said SHARECenter director Lisa Rodrigues.

In the weeks before the end of the school year, �ֲ���ý students brought items they no longer needed or were too costly to transport home to pickup locations in their residence halls

Volunteers with John F. Murphy Homes, which serves children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities and autism spectrum disorders, took the items to Underhill.

Then, Auburn-based SHARECenter, an educational supply unit that collects and distributes items to schools and nonprofits, recruited volunteers from numerous organizations to sort through and price the material — hand mirrors, piles and piles of clothes, an Egyptian drum.

SHARECenter also brought in items from elsewhere, such as filing cabinets from TD Bank and furniture from demolished houses.

Rodrigues, who ran the sale for the first time this year but has worked the event before, said the number of donated mini-fridges shot up this year, as did egg crate mattress toppers. In the years she’s worked Clean Sweep, both the number of physical textbooks and media like DVDs have dropped sharply.

The volunteers organized the items into neat aisles — shelving here, electric kettles there — and managed the sale. Groups such as churches, the Trinity Jubilee Center, and Advocates for Children took clothing, bedding, and furniture that went unsold or were set aside for them.

In addition to the community benefit and reduced waste disposal costs, Clean Sweep serves an important sustainability goal, Twist said. Most items require some form of carbon emission to produce — so if people reuse instead of buying new, the carbon footprint shrinks.

“That’s something we’re really mindful of post carbon neutrality,” he said. “What sort of impact are we having, not just in terms of fuels that we’re burning on campus, but fossil fuels that we’re causing to be emitted somewhere else in the world?”

Rodrigues said she hopes �ֲ���ý students know how valuable their donations are to the local nonprofits and the community.

“We truly appreciate all their generous donations,” she said.

A “garage sale” on a massive scale that benefits the environment, community organizations and countless satisfied shoppers, �ֲ���ý College presents its 15th annual Clean Sweep at 8 a.m. Saturday, June 20, at the Underhill Arena, 145 Russell St.

As students pack up to leave �ֲ���ý at the end of the school year, they donate to Clean Sweep all kinds of possessions still in good working order — clothing, electronics and toys, household goods and small furnishings, bikes and books, sporting goods and more. Faculty, staff and the college itself also donate items.

It’s a win-win-win-win situation: Shoppers find treasures at bargain prices, still-usable goods are kept out of the waste stream and the proceeds go to local nonprofits, who in turn supply volunteers to staff the sale.

To learn more, please call 207-786-6464.

�ֲ���ý is one of a number of colleges and universities nationwide that hold such sales. Last year’s event at �ֲ���ý raised nearly $22,000, which was divided among 12 local nonprofit organizations.

The volunteers collect, organize and price items, and help clean up afterward. Located in Lewiston except as indicated, the nonprofits taking part this year are:

The Caleb Group (River Valley Village); Catholic Charities of Maine’s Seek Elderly Alone, Renew Courage and Hope (SEARCH) Program; Maine Franco-American Genealogy Society of Auburn-Lewiston, located in Auburn; the Life Center at John F. Murphy Homes, Auburn; the Lots to Gardens program at St. Mary’s Nutrition Center; the Share Center, Auburn; TriCounty Mental Health Services and its Social Learning Center; and the Trinity Jubilee Center.

In a display typically reserved for midnight premieres or Black Friday, a line began forming at daybreak.

Some savvy veterans of Clean Sweep even brought collapsible chairs with them, waiting out the line in relative comfort.

It would be hours before the Underhill Arena doors officially opened, but �ֲ���ý’ 14th annual “garage sale” was certainly worth the wait. Hundreds of items donated by the �ֲ���ý community in order to keep them out of the waste stream translated into great deals for the Lewiston-Auburn community, and some $22,000 for participating nonprofits.

As customers in line discussed their hopes for the event, snippets of conversation concerning refrigerators, sound systems and Tupperware could be overheard. Gina Thompson of Sabattus was particularly looking forward to the “goodie bags,” $4 plastic bags filled with a variety of small items.

Amidst this background talk of what would be found at Clean Sweep, Mike Thibodeau of Lewiston pithily observed that “the first thing they have is a long line.”

Thibodeau had a point. By 7:30 a.m. the line stretched from Underhill to the landmark Bobcat statue near Leahey Field — then nearly doubled its length in the next half-hour.

When the doors finally opened, there were cheers as the crowd poured into Underhill. The selection of sale items was baffling at first, with areas dedicated to shoes, pillows, glassware, printers, a forest of lamps and enough books to outfit a library, among a menagerie of other pieces.

The gates open at 8 a.m., and Clean Sweep 2014 begins. (Alexander Hulse ’15)

The section was perhaps the most competitively priced — small couches and futons cost as little as $15, with larger items similarly affordable. These deals attracted plenty of attention, and many tired shoppers took a minute or two to test the comfort of a chair or futon.

Furniture requiring extra effort to move, Clean Sweep offered customers the opportunity to reserve pieces for up to an hour, allowing time to arrange for transportation.

After taking in this sight, many would look down and realize that the floor itself was on sale! The ground was lined with an eclectic variety of rugs, each with its own handwritten price tag.

Opinions about the event, produced by the college’s Office of Sustainability Initiatives, seemed overwhelmingly positive. Auburn resident Debbie Mansur observed that Clean Sweep is a “good opportunity to give back to community programs,” while Keagan Cody, Lewiston, said only, “These swords are awesome!” about his swashbuckling find of three foam cutlasses. Clean Sweep clearly has a wide appeal!

Deals by lamplight. (Alexander Hulse ’15)

This glowing response was reflected by the  folks staffing the event — volunteers from the local nonprofits that shared Clean Sweep proceeds. One of the many three-year Clean Sweep veterans, Nenman Estes of Sabattus, a volunteer from the Loaves and Fishes program of the Dominican Sisters, said, “It’s great helping local charities, food banks — there’s a lot of need for that right now.”

Between reducing waste, supporting these charitable endeavors and creating a positive relationship between �ֲ���ý and local residents that lasts through the years, it’s not at all surprising that next year Clean Sweep will be celebrating its 15th anniversary.

A “garage sale” of appliances, furniture, sporting equipment, electronics and other goods donated by the �ֲ���ý College community raised nearly $17,000 on June 15.

Fourteen local nonprofit organizations will divide the proceeds from the 13th annual Clean Sweep at �ֲ���ý, a popular community event that drew hundreds of bargain-hunters from across the region to the college’s Underhill Arena.

The sale was originally created to ensure that worthy items left behind by students departing at the end of the academic year didn’t go into the waste stream. Clean Sweep has grown into an eagerly anticipated event that’s a win-win-win for shoppers, the environment and nonprofits that help staff the sale.

“Clean Sweep is great partnership program,” says Julie Rosenbach, manager of sustainability initiatives at �ֲ���ý. “For the college it’s a cost-effective and sustainable way of mitigating waste at the end of the year. It consistently raises thousands of dollars for local non-profit organizations — more than $120,000 has gone to nonprofits since Clean Sweep was first started in 2000.

“And community members love it — they get great bargains. How do I know this? I start getting calls in April asking when the sale will be.”

The nonprofits supply volunteers to help staff the sale as well as other support. In turn, they share the sale proceeds among themselves according to the number of volunteer hours, trucks and tables each organization provides.

All told, more than 100 volunteers represented the 14 nonprofits participating in this year’s sale. They collected, organized and priced items for the sale, as well as cleaning up afterward.

Also playing an important role in this year’s sale was Sonja Favaloro of Princeton, N.J. A rising senior at �ֲ���ý, Favaloro served as the Clean Sweep coordinator for the internship that’s required of all majors in the environmental studies program.

“She did a fantastic job managing all the logistics and coordinating over 1,400 volunteer hours of work,” says Rosenbach.

“This year I was especially happy with the prices,” Rosenbach adds. “We cut prices on almost every item.”

She says that from an entire ice arena full of merchandise, only about a pickup truck load remained for disposal at the end of the sale

Located in Lewiston except as indicated, the nonprofits taking part this year were: the Caleb Group (River Valley Village); Catholic Charities of Maine’s Seek Elderly Alone, Renew Courage and Hope (SEARCH) Program; the Creative Trails Program at Support Solutions; the Dominican Sisters; First Universalist Church, Auburn;

Also, the Justice, Ecology and Democracy Collective, Greene; the Life Center at John F. Murphy Homes, Auburn; Lots to Gardens; the Root Cellar; the Share Center, Auburn; Somali Bantu Community Association; TriCounty Mental Health Services and its Social Learning Center; and the Trinity Jubilee Center.

�ֲ���ý is one of a number of colleges and universities nationwide that benefit both local nonprofit organizations and the environment by selling useful possessions donated by students as they depart at the end of the academic year, as well as by other members of the campus communities.

The 12th annual Clean Sweep, �ֲ���ý College’s green “garage sale” of appliances, furniture, electronics and other goods donated by the college community, raised $21,223 — a record sum for the event — that will be divided among 14 local nonprofit organizations.

A popular community tradition, the June 16 sale filled the college’s Underhill Arena, drawing hundreds of bargain-hunters from the region.

The event is a win-win-win for the nonprofits, shoppers and the environment. Sale proceeds go to nonprofits that, in exchange, supply volunteers to help staff the event, as well as other support. How large a share of proceeds each nonprofit receives is determined by the number of volunteer hours, trucks and tables it provides.

This year’s volunteers put in nearly 1,400 hours of effort, says Julie Rosenbach, manager of sustainability initiatives at �ֲ���ý, a college recognized for both “green” programming and active engagement in the community.
Shoppers and the environment benefit because so many valuable items are given a second chance at a useful life, rather than going into the waste stream.

“With the help of the participating organizations, we were able to find a home for almost all of the leftovers, so very little — less than would fit in a pickup truck — went into the trash,” says Rosenbach.

Located in Lewiston except as indicated, the nonprofits taking part this year were: the Caleb Group (River Valley Village); Common Ties Mental Health Services; Dominican Sisters; First Universalist Church, Auburn; the Justice, Ecology and Democracy Collective, Greene; the Life Center at John F. Murphy Homes, Auburn; Lots to Gardens; Maine People’s Alliance; the Root Cellar; the Share Center, Auburn; Somali Bantu Community Association; Support Solutions; TriCounty Mental Health Services; and the Trinity Jubilee Center.

While goods for the sale were donated from across the campus community, many of these still-worthy items came from students preparing to leave campus at the end of the academic year.

A “garage sale” on a massive scale that benefits the environment, community organizations and countless satisfied shoppers, �ֲ���ý College’s Clean Sweep returns for the 12th year at 8 a.m. Saturday, June 16, at Underhill Arena, 145 Russell St.

As students pack up to leave �ֲ���ý at the end of the school year, they donate to Clean Sweep all kinds of still-valuable possessions — electronics and toys, household goods and small furnishings, bikes and books, sporting goods and more. Faculty, staff and the college itself also donate items. The annual sale keeps these perfectly usable items out of the landfill, and the proceeds go to local nonprofits.

To learn more, please call 207-786-6207.

�ֲ���ý is one of a number of colleges and universities nationwide that hold such sales. Drawing some 800 bargain-hunters from the Lewiston-Auburn region, last year’s event at �ֲ���ý raised more than $16,000 in proceeds divided among 14 local nonprofits.

An annual tradition for both the campus and local bargain hunters, the sale is staffed by volunteers from the nonprofits, which in return receive a share of the proceeds.

Located in Lewiston except as indicated, the nonprofits taking part this year are: the Caleb Group (River Valley Village); Common Ties Mental Health Services; Dominican Sisters; First Universalist Church, Auburn; the Justice, Ecology and Democracy Collective, Greene; the Life Center at John F. Murphy Homes, Auburn; Lots to Gardens; Maine People’s Alliance; the Root Cellar; the Share Center, Auburn; Somali Bantu Community Association; Support Solutions; TriCounty Mental Health Services; and the Trinity Jubilee Center.

The 11th annual Clean Sweep, �ֲ���ý College’s green “garage sale” of appliances, furniture, electronics and other goods donated by departing students, raised $16,540 in proceeds that will be divided among 13 local nonprofit organizations.

A popular community tradition, the June 18 sale filled the college’s Underhill Arena, drawing some 800 bargain-hunters from Lewiston-Auburn and the region.

The event is a win-win-win for shoppers, the environment and local nonprofit organizations. The shoppers turn up treasures that would otherwise have gone into the waste stream. Sale proceeds help support nonprofits that, in exchange, supply volunteers to help staff the event, as well as other logistical support. How large a share of proceeds each nonprofit receives is determined by the number of volunteer hours, trucks and tables it provides.

This year’s volunteers put in nearly 1,200 hours of effort, says Julie Rosenbach, sustainability coordinator at �ֲ���ý, a college known for both “green” initiatives and active engagement in the community.

“We had great volunteers who worked to get all the goods out of the dorms around campus as students left for the year, and to turn the arena into a well-organized community yard sale,” she says.

“Many of the organizations have been involved with Clean Sweep for years. The volunteers love working on it, and it shows.” She adds, “With the success of the sale year after year, more and more organizations call to find out how they can participate.” Rosenbach plans to establish an application process for next year.

Located in Lewiston except as indicated, the nonprofits taking part this year were: the Caleb Garden Club; Common Ties Mental Health Services; First Universalist Church, Auburn; the Justice, Ecology and Democracy Collective, Greene; Life Center; Lots to Gardens; Maine Fair Trade Campaign; Maine People’s Alliance; New Beginnings, Inc.; the Share Center, Auburn; Somali Bantu Community Association; TriCounty Mental Health Services; and the Trinity Jubilee Center.
