Kerr County Market Day and Swap Meet return to the Hill Country Youth Event Center

The indoor marketplace features two sections. The Market Days area offers new items and handcrafted goods, including wreaths, clothing, accessories, quilts, candles, jewelry, greeting cards, wooden cars, pet toys, fishing lures and wood sculptures.

The Kerr County Market Days & Hill Country Swap Meet will return Nov. 1 to the Hill Country Youth Event Center after a two-month delay caused by flooding.

The event, typically held in September, was postponed because the venue was needed for flood recovery efforts, according to show producer LuAnn Anderson.
