Fall is just about over and winter is just around the corner! You know what that means…it’s the holiday season!

In November, we focused on being thankful and giving back to our community. Not only does December mean a long break, but it’s also filled with fun and meaningful activities for everybody to help out those in need!

Whether you’ve already unpacked your decorations or not, don’t be a grinch and check out all the events this month!

Have fun this holiday season!

Your editors,

Vivien & Erin
