What the Free?! – November Edition
My favorite holiday is coming up - Thanksgiving! I’m not sure I find anything more exciting than cooking and watching the Macy’s Day Parade and football. What are some of your favorite recipes?
However, Thanksgiving isn’t the only exciting event happening in November. Check out some of these free events occurring throughout the month. There are even some Christmas themed festivals coming up! We’d love to hear about your experience if you are able to attend any of these exciting events.
Spend the day in Historic Downtown Newberry at our annual Fall Festival. Enjoy some holiday shopping in the nice fall weather. This year's event will be bigger than ever with great craft and food vendors.
On December 3, check out the Hawthorne Christmas Festival featuring Santa and Mrs. Claus, Parade, Bounce House, Food Trucks, Vendors and more!

Join Fun 4 Gator Kids Community Giving, Food4Kids Backpack Program of North Florida and Gainesville Fire Rescue for the Annual Fun 4 Gator Kids’ Touch-A-Truck event! Attendees will be able to get up close to large vehicles they may see around town. This event provides children with a hands-on educational experience by giving them an opportunity to climb into and/or on vehicles and to talk with the operators. They will also learn about the vehicles and pedestrian safety around large vehicles.
