This Saturday Student Renaissance will host the annual Holiday Bazaar here at FC. It will offer homemade merchandise made to be great gifts this holiday season, according to co-sponsor DeAnn Thrasher.
“This is a great way to shop for Christmas presents without the hassle of driving all the way to Clarksville to go to the mall,” said senior Brittany Murray, one of six senior leaders of Student Renaissance.
Renaissance will offer a wide variety of products such as jewelry, candles, scarves, and many more Christmas and holiday gift ideas. The bazaar will also provide snacks. Thrasher said Santa will be there all day to pose for pictures for a donation for Renaissance.
“There will be refreshments for a price. We have sack lunches, drinks, hot chocolate, and desserts,” said Murray.
All of the proceeds that come from the bazaar will go back to the students of FC.
“We do the academic pep rally in April and some of the money goes to that,” said Thrasher.
The Student Renaissance leaders plan the activities. Senior Kendall Ladd is another of the six senior leaders that contributed in the organization of this event.
“We put on the Holiday Bazaar because it’s a good way for the community to come together,” said Ladd.
There will be 60 vendors and they will all have a selection of items with varying prices. The bazaar will be located in the spine of FC on this Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
