This weekend is Market in the Meadow, my favorite shopping weekend all year. It’s a holiday gift sale at Forest Meadow Junior High, with more than 180 vendors from all over the state bringing unique gifts and specialty merchandise you can’t find at the local mall. Proceeds are used by the FMJH PTA to support students, teachers and programs at the school.

When you’re ready for a break from shopping, have a bite at the Charger Café, run by PTA moms, and indulge with homemade baked goods from the family recipes of dedicated volunteers. You can also enjoy free entertainment from LH-area bands, drill teams, cheer squads, dance troups and show choirs – there’s a schedule of performing groups here.
