    "The community events that are held within my neighborhood that are held to make my neighborhood special are the local farmers market. This farmers market is usually held every Saturday and is open to everyone. Anyone goes out and sets up stand and people come together. There are yard sales that usually happen during this time as well. Another community event that is held here annually is the thanksgiving turkey trot. It is held every year and everyone and anyone is welcomed to join. So many people come and it is just a great event to have, because it brings a lot of people together. "
