Think local, first this holiday season!

Now celebrated as the one of biggest shopping days of the year, Noel Night began in 2002 as a response to the Missionary Ridge Fire and the repercussions this disaster had on our local, independent businesses. Since then, this well-loved community event continues to have an enormous impact on our local economy and overall community well-being.
