We certainly entered winter in a hurryl Brrrrl I'm sending warm wishes to everyone.In my own family,I've encouraged my children to enjoy the unique opportunities that cold weather brings,whether it's an excuse to cuddle up under an extra blanket,play in the snow,ski,ice skate;or feed the birds.(Ideally without feeding.the neighborhood cats simultaneously!) One of the special things unique to the season is the return of Winterfest,which the Town sponsors.Thank you to the organizers of the event,as well as all off the organizations and groups hosting tables tomorrow. More information and thefull schedule is available here.Three cheers for free entertainment,a chance to stroll the streets without cars,and a chance to greet friends and neighbors. The holiday season can be hard for many families missing loved ones or otherwise struggling.I extend my thoughts to anyone who may be finding this season challenging.If you are having issues with food insecurity, transportation,gifts for children,or your utility bills(or a wide array of other needs),calling 211 will connect you directly with support through Tompkins County and other support organizations.If you are in need of immediate food support and are a SNAP recipient,Town Hall is serving as a distribution point and is typically open most days 8-3.If you need different hours,please don't hesitate to reach out to me at 607-387-5767, extenion 232.
