CHRISTMAS ON MERCER 2018
Once again, Christmas on Mercer brought Christmas cheer and an opportunity to do some early Christmas shopping from a variety of local artisans, craftsmen, and vendors.
Driftwood residents Bill and Deb Knotts visiting the event for the first time commented, “We really enjoyed our day out here. It was nice to see some new and unique vendors that you normally don’t see at other events.”

Audel Cayce, of Abby Cara Chocolates, provided chocolate treats to the Christmas revelers. The new Dripping chocolatier has her shop on 601 Old Fitzhugh Road.

The Willis family stopped by to visit with Santa at the Rotary event. From left to right: Brenden, Makynden, Santa, Kingsley, Grayson, and Stephanie (mom).

Monica Swenson, owner of Triple “S” Feeds, holds up a Circle E Candle from Fredericksburg, as a Christmas stocking stuffer idea. “We are locally owned, and we support local businesses,” she said.
