Rotary Club Salles Car Boot Sale

The Rotary Car Boot Sale: Solidarity and Friendliness in Salles

The Rotary Club of Salles, a player in local and international solidarity, organizes a charitable car boot sale every spring on the Esplanade of this forest commune in the Val de l'Eyre. The profits from the event are entirely donated to the humanitarian and social actions of Rotary: aid to people in difficulty, support for schooling, and community projects.

The Esplanade of Salles, a gathering space

The Esplanade of Salles is the traditional meeting place for the commune's events. Spacious and accessible, it comfortably accommodates dozens of exhibitors who set up their stalls of clothing, toys, books, crockery, trinkets, tools, and garden items. The atmosphere is relaxed and benevolent, reflecting the Rotarian spirit. Club volunteers ensure exhibitors are welcomed and manage a friendly refreshment stand.

Salles, forest town of the Val de l'Eyre

Salles is a forest commune crossed by the Leyre, the emblematic river of the Landes de Gascogne. Between pine forests and the river, the commune offers an exceptional natural living environment on the doorstep of the Bassin d'Arcachon. The Rotary Club car boot sale is one of the events that animate this peaceful commune, attracting residents of Salles as well as those from neighboring towns like Belin-Béliet, Mios, and Le Teich. It is a moment of sharing and solidarity in a region with a particularly rich associative fabric.
