The start of winter can bring freezing temperatures, slick ice on the sidewalks, mounds of snow, and plenty of holiday events to go around. The Neighborhood Council, Friends of the NE Library and Residents Association meetings will take place this week. In the Holiday spirit? Check out the Holiday Party on North Street, or attend one of the Holiday Music Concerts, the North End Christmas Luncheon, or bring a toy to the Santa Skate & Toy Drive at Steriti Rink and enjoy some time on the ice and a visit from Santa himself!
