Retailers along Balsam Street were joined by a number of vendors Saturday evening for the first Sundown on Balsam event. With mild temperatures and calm winds, many holiday shoppers came out and took advantage of Small Business Saturday and received great deals from the retailers as well as pick up unique Christmas gifts. Two bands were found playing at both ends of the streets to entertain the steady flow of shoppers, who also dined on cuisine served up by favorite food vendors.
