eautiful, delicious, and free admission to Christmas market! The local vendors of Rivers and Area showed up to help everyone enjoy the Rivers Legion Shop the Block at the Legion Hall on Saturday, Nov. 18, 2023. Seventeen vendors came and set up their tables on Saturday morning for a great turn out from the Rivers and surrounding communities who came out to support local crafters and bakers. The Shop the Block Christmas market has been around for many years and plans to continue to
be an annual event for many years to come. The event was moved from Thursday afternoon/evening to Saturday this year with a great response from the community. It was a great way to get started Christmas shopping. For the first time, the Legion decided to serve lunch and they received a great response to the hamburger soup, bun, dessert, and drink market goers were able to enjoy. The organizers of the market also collected nonperishable food donation for the Riverdale Food Bank. If a person brought an item for the food bank, they received an extra ticket for the front door prize. The Rivers Legion door prize was won by Jet Schoonbaert.
