Well, it's started! The holiday rush is upon us.
Now I’m not talking about television and stores advertising about what they have available for Christmas and how you need to put it on lay-a-way now. No, I’m talking about that rush where we jump in the car and rush around the county to bazaars; vendor shows; bake sales; and cookie walks. We’re either looking to make a purchase for ourselves or others, involved in the manufacture of items for sale – crafts or food, selling products from a company we believe in, or working to support a local cause.
This weekend is gonna be busy, and if you plan it right you won’t have to cook! On Saturday there are seven local events vying for your attention:
- Woof Studios will be at the Starke County Humane Society (time to get that yearly family portrait taken),
- a Hillbilly breakfast,
- a Vesper Circle Bazaar (also serving breakfast),
- a Fall Bazaar (serving lunch),
- a Winter Wonderland (proceeds to benefit the Starke County Humane Society),
- a bake sale to support the renovation at Pioneer Cemetery,
- and in the evening a fund auction to support education.
Sunday has more food coming our way with
- 3 pancake breakfasts spread throughout the county,
- a turkey lunch/dinner (depending if you eat in or carry out), and then
- a Fall Festival in the evening where refreshments will be available.
But be sure to save some money for next week. So far there’s a cookie walk, another bazaar & lunch, and two more vendor events. And who knows what will be listed in The Market next week.
You can check out these events, and find information on monthly/weekly events too, at the North Judson-Wayne Township Public Library’s website.
