Or maybe the hours of the market? It notes the location and time of the "opening" but other than that most of this info was pretty useless.

Thanks for the feedback. The location and hours of the market will remain consistent with the location and hours of the first market today: 2-7 p.m. every Thursday at the Pittsfield Township Administration Building, 6201 W. Michigan Ave. The market will continue through October 10.
