The South County Vendor and Craft Fair is Bigger and Better Than Ever

This craft fair is packed with fun for both visitors and vendors

 

The South County Secondary School (SCSS) has a short but proud history of serving and educating students in the Lorton area. Built in 2005, the school became the first secondary school in Fairfax County in 32 years. And today, five years later, the school is continuing its tradition to raise funds for and recognize graduating seniors.

In an ongoing mission to raise money, the SCSS PTSO and the Class of 2011 will hold the South County Vendor and Craft Fair this Saturday, December 4 at the school.

The craft fair will be held from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the school and will feature more than 80 vendors. The event will be held in the cafeteria, but exhibits will line the hallways because so many vendors will be there, according to Megan Babcock, one of two co-chairpersons for the event.

If you decide to attend, you will find a wide variety of merchants selling many products, such as jewelry and home décor items, Babcock said. With over 80 vendors attending, there will be a little bit of everything including food, holiday ornaments and gourmet chocolate. Web retailers, such as Selamlingo.com, will also attend.

Visitors can expect to find an eclectic mix of companies such as Mary Kay Cosmetics and local vendors like Miche Bag of Virginia. The craft fair is expected to be an active event. Kim Dupont, other co-chair for the craft bazaar, is excited about occasion, stating that there will be many great things including performances by students and other entertainment.
