The Flood Brook Student Activities Cooperative (FBSAC) and Londonderry’s Flood Brook Union School 5th Grade are hosting The Holiday Bazaar on December 5. There are many fun and exciting parts of the bazaar, like the gingerbread house contest and the silent auction, but the main draw is holiday shopping opportunities from our local vendors. There are still a few vendor booth spots available to sell your wares – use this great opportunity to capture some holiday dollars. The booth fee is only $5 plus 15 percent of your sales for the day.
