DAVID WEBBER: The many meanings of Christmas

Christmas, or the more generic “holiday season,” always brings a rush of emotions, but none more than 2020 because of political and COVID-19 anxieties and isolation. The Christmas season is a mixture of traditional, religious, commercial and cultural aspects that can overload even the steadiest and carefully-minded among us. This year most of us will travel less, window-shop less, visit family and friends less, socially celebrate less.

As we approach Christmas 2020 we sometimes forget that the holiday traditions we celebrate today in Saratoga Springs have not always been in practice, especially during the 1800’s.
