Gingerbread Extravaganza Finds New Home | Jacksonville News

The Gingerbread Extravaganza is moving to a new historic home this year—welcome to the Historic Springfield Society’s 118-year-old former Presbyterian church! After 23 years at the Jacksonville History Center, the beloved holiday tradition is passing the gingerbread torch to a community group equally devoted to preserving local heritage. Originally started in 2003 by the Rotary Club as a fundraiser, the event has now found a fresh, festive chapter with the society, who’ll officially announce their takeover at a “Christmas in July” event this Saturday. Expect 15 days of sweet holiday cheer in December—wherever that may be. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
