Happy winter weekend! The days are blending together and the temps are dipping even lower, so we’re excited to have a few things to look forward to this weekend - here they are!
Ice Lantern Contest: Light up Crandall Pond with an ice lantern! They are easy to make (check out this video!) and would be a fun project for kids to help with, too. Once you’re done, you’ll bring it to Crandall Pond and follow the contest directions here. So very Hometown USA. Details here!
Restaurant Bingo: The Glens Falls Collaborative put together a restaurant version of everyone’s favorite game, which of course involves patronizing our downtown restaurants with dine in, takeout, or gift cards (yes please!). Once you get five in a row, you have a chance to win! All the details are here - good luck!
Chowderfest: Another pandemic pivot - Chowderfest, a winter favorite in Saratoga, is dedicating one week to Chowderfest this year instead of the usual one day. They’re calling it The Chowder Tour, and you can grab pints and quarts of chowder to go from participating restaurants, or dine in and enjoy it with lunch or dinner. Details here!
Ice Bar Season: We’ve got Covid to thank for disrupting ice bar season this year, but we just saw that The Sagamore’s ice bar is open - for overnight guests only! If you’re up for a little staycation, it would be a perfect spot to get into the spirit of this icy season. Details here.
A friendly reminder, and we feel like it goes without saying at this point, but with the numbers the way they’ve been over the last few weeks, it bears repeating: if you’re heading out, please wear your masks and maintain your distance! Stay safe out there neighbors :)
Have a great weekend!
