Lighting events this week

If you were one of the brave who toughed it out taking in the Taylors Falls Lighting Festival, you enjoyed one of the best parades I can remember. It was considerably longer than ever and the crowd size was immense. Despite having some very cold fingers, we had a great time at the event. Taylors Falls does an absolutely wonderful job with the Lighting Festival and all involved deserve a huge thank you.

Bingo, bingo everywhere

Thanksgiving is just around the corner. If you are going to be alone this Thanksgiving, you don’t have to be. The good folks at Chisago Lake Lutheran Church in Center City invite any and all to come enjoy Thanksgiving with them and others. The meal is free and features all of the wonderful traditional turkey meal fixings. I have assisted with the meal in the past, and I have to be honest, that meal looked more appealing then some we have traveled to with family. You are asked to please make reservations by November 25 so they know how much to prepare. You can contact them at 651-257-6300 or email them at [email protected].
