September 17-23

There's something for everyone to think about in Tupelo this week.  For starters, there are several different live music events between Tuesday and Saturday.  This week is Homecoming Week for the Tupelo Public School District, and the annual parade and pep rally will be held downtown on Thursday afternoon.  Also on Thursday is the 6th Annual Art for Animals silent art auction to benefit the Tupelo Humane Society at the Gumtree Museum of Art at 6 p.m.  The Mississippi Tourism Association is also hosting a silent auction online that runs through next Tuesday.  The Tupelo CVB is hosting a Tupelo Tourism Leadership program, and application deadline is October 15th.  And are you planning an event in Tupelo?  See if you qualify for additional funding from CVB through our Event Promotion Grant Program.  Also, CVB is hosting a social media workshop on October 9th, and more information will soon be posted on our website.  Coming up next weekend is the Tupelo Fair at the BancorpSouth Arena, so prepare your stomach for corndogs and fried twinkies.  And be sure to take advantage of the Natchez Trace's promotion right now and enter to win a $500 gas card.  Out of this list, there should be at least one thing that interests you, so take some time to check it out!  Have a great week!
