Greetings from the Carrabelle Chamber! 105 St. James Ave/Hwy 98 in Carrabelle Hello friends!

My favorite time of year! All of the fall activities really get going around our community so make sure to stay tuned to all of your local groups and organizations who will have activities almost nonstop through the rest of the year!

This month the dates for the Crooked River Lighthouse Country Farmer's Market are this Saturday the 7th and again Saturday the 21st. Start picking up some of those holiday gifts! Do you or a loved one need help evacuating during a disaster? During a hurricane or tropical storm that requires a mandatory evacuation of the county, Franklin County Emergency Management will provide transportation for residents to get to a shelter, all you need to do is apply. To qualify you have to be a resident of Franklin County and currently do not have a means of transportation. If you choose to use our program remember that we can only take you to a designated shelter, shelters are not meant for comfort and should be a last resort if you have no where else to evacuate to. For more information and application form please visit: https://www.franklinemergencymanagement.com/evac-transportation/ On Saturday the 21st get involved with a great fall activity.... THE INTERNATIONAL COASTAL CLEANUP!
