Hey Neighbors!
The relief from the cold came in the form of so much rain! The heavy downpours with the snow melt on Wednesday caused slight flooding issues in isolated areas. With lows in the teens that followed it was quite the change up. Look out for more moderate temperatures next week on Monday with rain possible again early in the week. With no snow on the forecast for this week, we’re all still hoping for a white Christmas.
This holiday season, take that extra effort to spread joy and be kind to others, especially your neighbors! In a time that may be difficult for many, be the light that shines bright. Whether it is a batch of cookies or just an extra smile and wave, every little thing counts.
The Holiday Parade of Lights & Tree Lighting was this past weekend on Friday and the huge tree in front of SSCS is now lit up!! Thank you to all those who volunteered and donated to this wonderful community cause!
