Hundreds of shoppers took to the uptown Mount Vernon and Lisbon communities Saturday, Nov. 27, on the day encouraging people to shop local and at small businesses.
Roads and sidewalks were a touch icy at the start of the morning due to a light drizzle that fell early Saturday morning, but spirits were warm and festive in many area businesses on the day.
The Shop Small Saturday was the second Shop Small event held in Mount Vernon and Lisbon this November, with the first held Nov. 6.
