The Harrison County Parks Department has asked the county council for $7500 out of riverboat funds to pay for a potential Christmas market in downtown Corydon.

The proposed plan for the market is to be open three weekends, starting the Friday after Thanksgiving with up to 20 vendors. Parks superintendent Larry Shickles explained that

"we're going through the motions to get everything done so that in case we can get everything rolling, we would be good to go, but there is a possibility that it would not happen and the money would revert."

The Parks plans to request an additional $7500 from the Town of Corydon to fund the project.
