Farewell fall, and hello winter — make way for all the snowfall! This Betster would like to remind everyone to please drive safely on these icy roads and in the early dark. There’s so much community activity in store that would be a shame to miss out on! Get a head start on a bountiful garden, get your dance moves on or get turkey-trotting, or get some great finds at a local craft fair! For this and more, and all the details, check out these Best Bets!
The nights grow colder and the days grow shorter, and we’re all looking forward to the holiday season. Winter’s steady approach also means the incoming arrival of cold and flu season — not to worry, there are plenty of health classes and events on the calendar to give you tips on staying well! In addition, check out who’s running food drives for your local food pantry in advance of Thanksgiving, or get some hands-on experience in learning to preserve food safely!
