Flat Rock Historical Society Fall Flea Market

The Flat Rock Historical Society’s Fall Flea Market will be held on Sunday October 4th at the Flat Rock Speedway, located one mile South of town on Telegraph Road. Hours are 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. No Pets are allowed. Parking and admission are free. Only paid vendors are allowed admittance before 7 a.m. The Flea Market will be held rain or shine – there is no rain out date.

VENDORS

If you want to set up as a Vendor, spaces are 20 x 20 and are $40.

Vendors cannot sell food or used clothing. We do not take advance reservations. We will line up vendors at midnight and will start parking as soon as possible – probably about 1 a.m. You may come anytime you want during the night and we will put you on the next available spot. Please be at the site no later than 5 a.m. so we have time to get you set up. We will open the gates at 7 a.m. and will have a crowd waiting to get into the area. We do not provide tables and if you want to be set up with another vendor, you must come at the same time.

If you need to talk to an officer about the Munger General Store Museum or the Flat Rock Hotel & Wagar home restoration, please call Lila at 782-1269 or Cindy at 789-8946

WELCOME TO FLAT ROCK

The first Euro-American settlers in Flat Rock were Michael Vreeland and his five grown sons between 1811 and 1820. Michael had been captured by British Rangers during the Revolutionary War and released after American independence.

The family purchased 800 acres (3.2 km2). The town was called the Village of Vreeland until 1838 when the Vreeland family sold off the majority of the land and relinquished control of the area. The Vreeland families built the first grain and lumber mill, having brought the grinding stones from New York.

Descendants of Michael Vreeland still live in the town and attend Flat Rock public schools, being the seventh generation to reside in the town their family founded.
