For the second year Schindy’s, the hidden gem of a pizza place tucked near Diamond Lake, will be hosting a Thanksgiving Dinner for the community. For free. Yeah, really. From their fb page: “We enjoyed this so much last year we’re doing it again. Everyone is welcome and there is no charge for this meal. We believe in our hearts that no one should be alone on such a blessed day.” Apparently last year there was quite a showing of folks who partook in some good TDay eating while watching the Lions get edged by the Bills. This year it’s the Packers on the schedule. Dinner gets going at noon. The Lions kickoff a half hour later. The Riverstop Cafe where Thursday nights have meant top level musical entertainment will not be hosting a gig on Thursday. The good news is, they’re moving it to Friday where Gina & Jordan will be returning to perform from 6-9:30pm. This talented duo has will not disappoint But if it’s a ‘get in the mood for Christmas’ vibe you’re searching for, head to Webster Park in Hesperia Friday for their Light Up the Park celebration. Carolers, Cookies, Hot Chocolate, Wagon Rides, the always amazing Deater Light Show and the Big Guy himself, S.Claus will be making an appearance with the indomitable Mrs. Claus at his side. This all sounds great but as a bonus, sort of the Christmas cherry atop the sundae, there will be fireworks beginning at 7:30pm. Yes, we said fireworks. Great community event. Also Friday the “Colors of Christmas” display begins showing their seasonal stuff at the Croton Campground. Free, but donations are accepted so don’t be shy about chucking a fiver their way. Well worth it.. On Saturday the NCCA Artsplace is hosting Pottery Place Ornament Painting Day From the Artsplace: “We have a lot of bisque ornaments ready to glaze, so we’re having a $3.00 ornament painting day!

Ornaments will be ready for pick up on Saturday, December 2.” Sat., November 25 Between 10:00 a.m.-1:45 p.m. All Ages, $3 per ornament. We know nothing about the group Mighty Fine, but understand they have had gigs at the Amble Bar, the Sportsman’s Club, and some other area venues. This Saturday starting at 6pm they’ll be at the Driftwood and no, not on the deck. There you go Near Northians. Much to do and we’re just scratching the season.
