FRIDAY 8:00 AM - Inside Dealers open 10:00 AM - Outside Dealers open SATURDAY & SUNDAY 8:00 AM - All Dealers open Friday: $ 10.00 Saturday: $ 6.00 Sunday: $ 4.00 3-Day Pass: $15.00 FREE Parking Shop at 8 am with two hours of shopping our inside dealers. Many have saved special merchandise just for the Extravaganza, so there are fresh treasures to be found. At precisely 10:00 AM, our outside dealers open up. Some of our shoppers make a mad dash to find their favorite dealers. Others set a more leisurely pace, saving themselves for the long haul. Still others continue shopping inside, choosing to do the 1,000+ outside dealers later. If the number of packages being carried is any indication, all three groups seem to be successful! There is plenty of parking! But, our regular visitors know to arrive fairly early to get the best spot. Many have arranged to stay in a local motel or Bed & Breakfast, knowing they'll want to spend more than just one day here. Most folks alternate between the outside and inside dealers -- enjoying the fresh air and sunshine, and trekking back and forth to their cars with packages; then popping into our Phone: (352) 383-8393

The driving force behind the Russell Forest Run is to help provide educational tools for the kids in the Alexander City School System. In this time of proration, teacher cuts, and program cuts – Russell Forest Run and race sponsors have teamed with the Alexander City Education Foundation to host a challenging race, raise a few dollars for the kids, and let runners have a great race in one of the most beautiful areas in the Southeast – the Russell Forest. From start to finish the Russell Forest Run measures 10K and carries runners over gently rolling hills on sand, clay, and gravel roads that were designed for bicycles and electric cars. The scenic route starts at Russell Crossroads, takes runners over to Kob’s Knob, up to Heaven Hill, and back to the finish line at Russell Crossroads. Following the 7:45am 10K, there will be a 5K run which will start at 8:45am near Catherine’s Market at Russell Crossroads. Runners from across the southeast are registering for this race. While supplies last, the 10K runners will receive a Russell Athletic high performance long sleeve runner’s shirt. Phone: 256-397-1019
