Yorktown Market Days – First Responders Market
September 7 @ 8:00 am – 12:00 pm
They are the unsung heroes of our community, and we’re celebrating them at the First Responders Market. It’s a morning dedicated to our firefighters, sheriff’s deputies, 911 & emergency communications dispatchers, public works officials, and other first responders who keep our community safe. Stop by to let them know how much you appreciate them!
This family-friendly event is a perfect way to spend a Saturday morning. Several emergency vehicles and officials will be on site to educate visitors and answer questions.
Shop for seasonal produce; fresh seafood and meats; breads; fresh-cut flowers; handmade soaps and candles; honey; gourmet dog treats; and a beautiful display of work from local artists and artisans. In addition, a variety of vendors and artists will be providing discounts to first responders who want to shop at the market.
At 10am The Fifes and Drums of York Town will perform.
