Search begins for holiday bazaars

There are many reasons to celebrate fall in Las Vegas. For one thing, you can go outside without having to jump in a swimming pool.

Yes, exuberance returns as the 90-degree temperatures in September feel so much cooler than they did way back in June.

One of the ways the Review-Journal observes the changing season is through its annual list of holiday bazaars. People who love to shop at them usually can find one every weekend until nearly Christmas.

And so the process begins for another year as we ask nonprofit groups and clubs to provides us with details of their bazaars.

We need the name of the event, date, time, street address and examples of what will be available to buy. The name of the nonprofit group also must be included along with information on how the money raised will be used. We also require a name and daytime phone number -- which won't be published -- in case we have questions.

The deadline to provide this information is 5 p.m. Sept. 17.

Send details to Holiday Bazaars, Features Department, Las Vegas Review-Journal, P.O. Box 70, Las Vegas, NV 89125-0700. Or fax it to 383-4676 or e-mail it to mrhynes@ reviewjournal.com (with Holiday Bazaars in the subject line).

Further details are available by calling Madelon Hynes, 383-0306.

The listing is scheduled to appear in the Living section and online Oct. 3.
