Hi Elk County peeps  Smiley

We live about 45 minutes away from Howard, and are planning on coming to the citywide this weekend.  Curious to know if anyone can tell me how many sellers are signed up for Friday and how many for Saturday, and where maps would be available.  We're trying to decide which day would be better, so if Saturday has more sellers we'll wait and come then.

Also - does Howard have a grocery store?  And where would be a good place to grab lunch?

Thanks very much in advance.

First - Howard has a GREAT grocery store - Family Market - on the northwest corner of Wabash and Randolph. It's open 8-5 Friday and 8-2 Saturday. Wide selection of foods, great prices.

Lunch - 3 choices - Toots (on the highway), Sweet & Spicy (South Wabash) and Poplar's (South Wabash). They're all good places to eat - pick depending upon your "mood" of the day.

There are 26 sellers signed up this time, all are on Friday and Saturday. Some of the Saturdays are shortened days. There are also a couple that are open Sunday. One of the Fridays is a morning only, but they are open all day Saturday.

Maps are available in several locations. P & J's, on the highway north as you come in to town, would be the best place to stop.

Enjoy! There are some good items listed.

Yes, we did, and we found some perfectly lovely bargains.  As always, we were so impressed with the organization behind Howard's citywides, and the friendly people we met as we shopped!

We didn't eat, unless you call stopping for snacks at P&J's twice eating  Grin  but plan to next time. 

Thank you again for the information!  We'll be back for the spring sales, if not before!

Ah, yes - P&J's does count as eating. Many of us snack there. Glad you enjoyed your weekend.
