Beat the Black Friday crowds by shopping early for a good cause

Unique holiday gifts can be hard to find, which can mean waiting in line at the mall. Why not skip the lines and parking lots and join us for holiday shopping at the annual Holly Days celebration from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 11 in the main lobby at Methodist Mansfield Medical Center, 2700 E. Broad Street in Mansfield. 

Check everyone off of your holiday shopping list as you browse through the Auxiliary country store featuring local vendors and baked goods including cookies, pickles, jams, and jellies. Choose from a variety of new and unique gift items including home décor, clothing, jewelry, purses, soaps, raffles and much more. Kris Kringle himself will even make a special appearance from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. for photographs, and carolers from Music Place Mansfield will provide festive entertainment to get shoppers in the holiday spirit. With so many options, you’re sure to find something on everyone’s holiday wish-list.  Proceeds from Holly Days benefit Methodist Mansfield Medical Center and our mission to improve and save lives through compassionate quality healthcare. This year’s Holly Days chairwoman is Cindy Merren and the title sponsor is Mansfield Plumbing.
