As Bing Crosby sang “City sidewalks, busy sidewalks, dressed in holiday style. In the air there’s a feeling of Christmas,” Kingston was decked out this year in splendor.  People had so many craft markets from which to choose the perfect gift, Santa appeared all over town with even sightings of his reindeer, there were plays, dances and movies to warm your heart and singing that would put even Scrooge in the holiday mood!

Members of the Shinbone Alley Stilt Band entertained during the Snowflake Festival.

Here are just a few snapshots that occurred this month. We hope your holiday is filled with good tidings and goodwill to your neighbors far and near. As Tiny Tim from A Christmas Carol said, “God bless everyone.”
