Support Lincoln Elementary by donating items for their annual Vendor Market in November

BEDFORD— The Lincoln Elementary School Parent-Teacher Organization has announced the return of its popular Vendor Market, scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 22, 2025, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Lincoln Elementary School in Bedford.

Now in its second year, the annual Lincoln Vendor Market is expected to draw large crowds and will feature more than 50 local vendors, food trucks, and a variety of family-friendly activities. The event will include a silent auction, raffle prizes, and a 50/50 drawing. Children will have the opportunity to visit with Santa Claus and pose for pictures, making the event a festive kickoff to the holiday season.

Proceeds from the event support the PTO’s mission to enhance educational experiences for all Lincoln Elementary students. Last year’s inaugural market drew strong community participation, and organizers say this year’s event is shaping up to be even bigger.

To help ensure the success of the fundraiser, the PTO is currently seeking donations for silent auction and raffle items. Suggested contributions include gift certificates, attraction or event tickets, handmade items, services, home décor, jewelry, or monetary donations. Donations are tax-deductible; the PTO’s tax ID is 0116957310 and its EIN is 47-1167106.

Anyone interested in making a donation or learning more about the event is encouraged to contact the PTO at (812) 275-6311 or email hootenj@nlcs.k12.in.us.
