Hello all,

Just wanted to give everyone the heads up about Fondren Unwrapped on November 15th between 5 and 9 pm. We all hope everyone can come out, as its sure to be a festive evening!

From the Fondren Renaissance Web site :
Billed as the Historic Fondren District's gift to the community, this annual holiday event is a must on everyone's calendar. The merry merchants of Fondren throw open their doors from 5PM until 9PM in a grand and festive holiday, open-house involving shopping, dining, music, drink and lots of community well-wishing.

Once again, merry-makers are invited to stroll from shop to shop throughout the business district, then top of their night with a warming dinner with family and friends at one of Fondren's many fine eateries. Jingle bells are ringing on the Thursday before Thanksgiving every year in "downtown Fondren" and all are invited to another free community event made possible by the merry merchants of Fondren and the Fondren Renaissance Foundation.

I just found out last night he will not be running down to Council Circle area. He will be running his regular route (minus the hospitals) but will be adding the route down Mitchell to the Shoe Bar at Pieces. Sorry for the delay in posting this info. Hope to see y'all tonight!!!!
