The weekly flea market is held at the Dixie Twin Drive-In and opens at 6 a.m.

Our 2 NEWS photographer spoke with a man who has been at the market for two years. Jeff Anderson sells household items and cleaning products; his wife sells oddities.
When asked what stands out most to him about the flea market, he shared his thoughts.
'It's more fun than a yard sale. There are a lot of people who come by each week and there's a comradery there. There's several vendors who line up beside us, we have our neighbors each week,' said Anderson. 'We get to see the community and people all summer long.'
He said the weather caused fewer people to come out than normal.
'It's definitely turned it down; the flea market opprates better on a sunny day. It's usually dark when you get here but it lightens up and everything's fine. The rain generally keeps the vendors and especially the costumers away,' said Anderson.
He shared his closing thoughts.
'Come on out. It's a great place to get a deal and see your neighbors,' said Anderson.
The market will run until the fall.
