Admission is free, and Santa Claus will be on-site for visits from 11 a.m.-1 p.m.
Sanders provided this sneak peak of some items that will be available for purchase: holiday decorations, jewelry, tumblers, pet accessories, blankets, pillows, towels, personal hygiene items, doll clothes, purses and bags, books, items for babies, collectibles, homemade noodles, desserts of all kinds, honey, jams and jellies, and cheeseballs.
In addition to providing shopping opportunities, the sorority operates a café, where breakfast and lunch items may be purchased.
The Gift & Hobby Show is one of the sorority’s largest fundraisers of the year. Profits from booth fees and food sales help fund scholarships that are given in May to one graduating senior at each of Shelby County’s five high schools. Stipends are also given to various non-profit organizations throughout the county.
