On Saturday, May 1, downtown Stephenville will be having its annual event known as May Market Madness. Located on the square, the event will begin at 9 a.m. Saturday morning and continue until 1 p.m. During that time, anyone can visit historic downtown Stephenville and shop all day. While you shop, you can also be entered to win the merchant gift basket or $100 merchant gift card.

The Stephenville Farmers Market will also be taking place at the plaza downtown from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

KayLee Pemberton, the owner of Blue-Eyed Buffalo, who helps organize the event, talked more in-depth about the market.

Pemberton said, “This event includes all of the downtown business and some of the shops will be having deals throughout the day.”

Pemberton also mentioned that the year before last, the event was called Margarita Madness where the businesses would give out drinks to people while they shopped.

“We have been hosting events like this for about three years now and have had different things every year. Last year we were unable to do this due to COVID-19,” Pemberton said.

“We will have the farmers market in the middle of the plaza and some businesses might have food and drinks for shoppers during the event,” Pemberton said.
