The holiday season is already in full swing, ready or not. Pink Friday kicks things off with local shopping and bingo across town, the 4-H Cloverbuds are hosting their Holiday Land Carnival at the fairgrounds, and volunteers are coming together to assemble Thanksgiving food baskets for local families. On the horizon: student theater, craft fairs, book club picks, and planning ahead for next year’s veterans gala. As always, there’s plenty happening—scroll down to get the details and make your weekend plans!
And an FYI, next week’s print edition will be in mailboxes and stores on Friday, due to the holiday, but the e-edition will be available on the normal schedule.
