Skis are just some of what will be available at the Down East Ski Sale held at the Portland Expo on Saturday. John Ewing/Staff Photographer
With winter on its way, the snow will be flying momentarily. Now’s the time to load up on used outdoor gear.
Presented by the Down East Ski Club, the sale includes ski and snowboard jackets, bindings, helmets, cross-country and downhill skis, poles and boots, gear bags, snowshoes, ice skates, gloves, goggles and more.
If you have some of your own gear you’d like to rehome and make a few bucks from, drop-off is from 1-5:30 p.m. Friday. The registration fee is $1 per item, and you’ll receive 80% of the sale price, if the item sells.
Down East Ski Sale and Winter Expo
8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday. Portland Expo, 239 Park Ave., free admission. On Facebook.

We believe it’s important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It’s a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others. Read more...
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
For those stories that we do enable discussion, our system may hold up comments pending the approval of a moderator for several reasons, including possible violation of our guidelines. As the Maine Trust’s digital team reviews these comments, we ask for patience.
Comments are managed by our staff during regular business hours Monday through Friday and limited hours on Saturday and Sunday. Comments held for moderation outside of those hours may take longer to approve.
By joining the conversation, you are agreeing to our commenting policy and terms of use. More information is found on our FAQs.
