After two years of constant road construction, the town of New Market is finally back to normal, except there are now wider sidewalks and light fixtures.

During the spring, summer and fall Shane Rossman and the town council are putting the spotlight on New Market with monthly events.

On April 29, New Market kicked off the monthly “Open Market” with  11 vendors set up along the sidewalks. This was in conjunction with the annual Cindy Alvarado On the Road Again 5K.

There will be six other “Open Markets” and other special events that will be happening over the course of the rest of the year.

May 6th there will a car show from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. that will benefit the LHS youth football team. There will be more than 100 cars n the New Market Elementary and Middle schools parking lots that will be on displayed for people to see. It cost $20 to register your cars. There is also going to be a 50/50 raffle.  Car owners can register at the event.

Kenny Lamb, a youth football coach participating in the car show planning, said, “The  cars that will be at the show are muscle cars, street cars, trucks, and a special jeep class. The Frederick Rock School will be performing most of the day.”

To celebrate the new street, the town will have a ribbon cutting ceremony.

Along with the car show, there will be approximately 20 vendors, ranging from cupcakes, art, jewelry, bags, and clothing, along New Market on the sidewalks starting at 10 am.

June 10th, New Market will hold their first ever music concert in the community park. The concert will start at 6 pm. The concert will be family friendly.
