Fresh Market: I know you're dying to get to the market since it was cancelled last Tuesday due to severe weather! So, bring your cash and your appetite to downtown Gulfport today between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. Also, be sure to "like" the Gulfport Fresh Market on Facebook! For more information about the weekly market contact Daniel Hodge with the Gulfport Merchants Association at dan@igc.org.

Clothing Swap: The monthly event is sponsored by the Gulfport Merchants Association and is held during the market. Organizers encourage people to bring up to 5 garments to exchange for free with other swap participants or purcahse vouchers for $3 each to select clothing. Extra clothing donations benefit CASA (Community Action Stops Abuse). Stop by Beach Boulevard and 30th Ave S between 9 a.m. and 12 p.m.
