REPORT FROM LAST WEEK’S MARKET: It was a picture perfect day at the Market. We had 45 vendors. We registered 2 vendors. Our customer count hovered around 100 all morning. We had visitors from Louisiana and Pennsylvania. The Lawrence County Rock Club displayed their rocks and minerals. They told interested visitors about the Gem, Mineral, Fossil Show/Swap they are sponsoring which will take place at the Monroe County Fairgrounds on June 22 through 24. After the Market, many customers, vendors and volunteers headed to Paoli for the Lotus Dickey Festival.
