Contact: Bob Crowe Come spend a fall day in the country at the 43rd annual Pike Road Arts and Crafts Fair from 9:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. on Saturday, November 7, 2009. See over 250 artists and craft vendors display their beautiful and unique wares on the grounds of the historic Marks House (circa 1825). Shopping doesn’t get any better than this. Come for the shopping or come for the food! Enjoy delicious pulled pork BBQ sandwiches, homemade chicken salad, pimento cheese sandwiches, fried chicken and more. Sample homemade goodies from the Sweet Shop inside the Marks House – cakes, pies, candy, and cookies. Pick up a dozen melt-in-your-mouth Mocha Cakes - Pike Road’s signature bite size sweet treat. This year there will be a special Mocha Nut Cake booth separate from the Sweet Shop. Children can experience special activities, too - face painting, a tour of the Pike Road Fire Department’s Mobile Fire Safety House, and free “make and take” crafts from Home Depot. This year the Central Alabama Model A Ford Club will exhibit a collection of restored Model As from the 1920’s. This year Becky Collier with the Alabama 4-H Youth Development Center, will be presenting conservation education shows with live birds of prey. Owls, hawks and falcons will entertain and educate audiences of all ages. Admission is $2.00 at the gate, with children under age 8 admitted free. Look for the signs off the Troy Highway (12 miles south of Montgomery) for directions to the Marks House, 890 Old Carter Hill Road, Pike Road, AL 36064.
