🌱 Chattanooga Holiday Market + Chattanooga Motorcar Festival Clean Up

Hi all. It's me, Danielle Fallon-O'Leary, your host of the Chattanooga Daily — back in your inbox with everything that's fit to print about what's happening in town.

But first, today's weather:

A couple of morning showers. High: 63 Low: 35.

📢 I'm looking for business owners and marketers in Chattanooga who want to build awareness, connect with customers and increase sales.

I have a limited number of sponsorships available to introduce our readers to local businesses they need to know. If that's you, then I invite you to learn more and secure your spot now.

Here are the top three stories today in Chattanooga:

1. A Chattanooga man has been sentenced to 290 months (over 24 years) in federal prison. Jamaal "MoneyMaal" Parker, 38 years old, was convicted of conspiracy to distribute five kilograms of cocaine and 28 grams of "crack." Parker led Chattanooga police on a high-speed pursuit during his arrest. (The Chattanoogan)
2. The Chattanooga Holiday Market begins this weekend. The market will be held at the Chattanooga Convention Center. It will be held on the weekends through Dec. 18. Participants will enjoy live holiday performances by various artists that include Jessica Nunn and Sweet Georgia Sound. Admission to the market is free. (WTVC)
3. Remnants of the Chattanooga Motorcar Festival are still visible in Chattanooga. Concrete barriers and piles of sod from the festival can be seen on side streets throughout the city. The Chattanooga Motorcar Festival was held almost two months ago in October. (The Chattanoogan)
