  Uvalde’s Downtown area businesses have already decorated their storefronts for the upcoming Christmas Season and November’s Four-Square Friday event had a festive feel to it with Christmas lights visible at Julien’s, Mi-Vida and other store windows. Outside of Mi Vida, a small crowd could be seen on the sidewalk viewing a giant pizza being baked on a large oven situated in a nearby parking space about 7:30 PM. 

 The Doll Haus Boutique featured elegant dresses in its store windows and Cashlyn Varnon was spotted at the Southern Lace Marketplace store counter. Members of the Rotary Club of Uvalde including Club President Debbie McDonald accompanied by Margaret Stypko, Veronica Conoley, and Tom Garcia selling raffle tickets for chances to win one of three weekend getaways as a fundraiser to build a splash pad for Uvalde. 

 Other organizations hold fundraising events including a group of SWTJC students and Texas Cavalry Baseball, and one other organization.

 Arnie’s Nursery & Gifts is located on 610 North Grove Street just past Sacred Heart Catholic Church.

   Arnulfo Reyes, known by many as Arnie, said he bought the building which was once a convenience store. According to Reyes, he stated he still has some work to do on the outside of the business which has a turquoise color exterior and on the corner of the business an old Coca-Cola sign and small tractor can be seen along with a flag that reads, Nursery.

  While the outside of the business currently lacks signage, the inside of the business is full of decorative plants and gift items.
