Next Saturday, December 16th you can look forward to a theatrical performance, music, food, and more!

12:00 and 2:00pm - Abridged performances of "A Christmas Carol" - Directed by Erin Coulter

Visit Scruffy's Ice Cream Parlor for a complimentary cup of hot cocoa as you stroll the streets and shops in Middleburg. Be sure to visit a local bakery or coffee shop for a pastry or slice of pie to go with it!

FREE COCOA will be available on weekends only!

Starting next weekend you can see the storefronts decorated for the holidays and they do not disappoint! Thank you to all of the businesses who added to the holiday spirit this year.

STUFF THE CRUISER

The Middleburg Business and Professional Association, Middleburg Police Department, and Seven Loaves are excited to bring back the "Stuff The Cruiser" event! Last year you all donated about 1000 lbs of food to those in need and we're looking to exceed that this year! Stop the Middleburg Safeway from 3-7pm THIS Friday, December 8th and share in the holiday spirit. See below for the list of holiday needs.
