The Greenville Cracker Barrel is busy preparing for its annual Holiday Open House Party on Tuesday, November 27.

Linda Daniel, publicity chairperson, said, "The open house party is one of the ways the restaurant can celebrate the holidays with their guests. The purpose of the open house is to thank our guests for their patronage and to welcome the arrival of the holiday season.

The party gets underway at 5 p.m. and will last until 8 p.m. Cracker Barrel's mission statement is "Pleasing People", and that's what is planned for the open house. The store will be offering gift ideas, delicious refreshments, door prizes and special entertainment that will include the

Persimmon Creek Cloggers, and possibly Santa Claus.

The knowledgeable staff will gladly assist visitors with holiday shopping and items will be gift-wrapped free of charge.

Troy Gunderson, general manager, issued a personal invitation to the community "to come out and enjoy a meal and the live entertainment and the new and existing retail merchandise."

Cracker Barrel's hours of operation are Sundays – Thursdays from 6 a.m. – 10 p.m. and Fridays and Saturdays from 6 a.m. – 11 p.m. For more information, call Cracker Barrel at 382-2691.
