With the rise in popularity of vintage and nostalgic items, there has never been more truth to the old adage that one person’s trash is another person’s treasure. Across the web and on popular television shows, there are countless people hunting for salvage items and showing how to repurpose and restore them, and the Fort Dodge Vintage Market will be bringing these types of treasures to central Iowa. On Oct. 16, 17 and 18, over 40 vendors will showcase their wares from noon to 8:00 p.m. on Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Saturday and from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on Sunday at the East Campus of Iowa Central Community College. This indoor setting will be perfect for those that enjoyed JunqueFest earlier this year, said coordinator Sue Heistand. One of Fort Dodge’s favorite eateries, Smokeworx, will also be on site serving up some of their BBQ favorites. For more information contact Heistand at 515-574-1292.
