December 1, 2012

Two events Saturday afternoon will offer shoppers an opportunity to purchase unique Christmas gifts.

Hope 4 Halee Boyd – Heritage Baptist Cantonment

A day of early Christmas shopping and a silent auction will be held today to benefit Halee Boyd, a Tate High School student that is battling cancer. The event will be held from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. at Heritage Baptist Church, 3065 Highway 297A in Cantonment.  Vendors will be on hand with Christmas bargains and a silent auction will offer numerous gift ideas. Door prizes will be given away each hour. A hot dog chip and drink meal will also be available for $5.

Donations for Halee Boyd are also accepted at Doral Bank, 4920 Bayou Boulevard in Pensacola.  For more information about Halee, click here for a NorthEscambia.com story from earlier this year.

Palafox Market – Downtown

There will be plenty of great gift ideas at the Palafox Market in the Martin Luther King Plaza in downtown Pensacola. Every Saturday from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m., the Palafox Market has something for everyone with over 70 vendors participating weekly. The market includes art vendors with an incredible variety of local and award winning art including paintings, sculptures, textiles, photography, woodworking, soaps, candles, jewelry and many holiday themed items. There are gifts for all tastes and styles to be found among the artists at the Palafox Market.

Food vendors sell an array of homemade cakes, breads, pies, jams, candies, salsas, and sauces and the market’s local meat and produce will be a fabulous addition to any holiday meal. The fresh cut flowers, plants, and aromatic potpourri will help you put the finishing touches on your holiday décor.
