The Lake Superior Trading Post was the scene of a“flash mob”Cook County style on Saturday, November 30. Members of the Borealis Chorale began filtering into the store shortly before 11 a.m. Once in place, singers and musicians offered an exquisite rendition of the Hallelujah Chorus from Handel’s Messiah. After the impromptu performance and applause from the delighted audience, the participants quietly went their separate ways.
After the Cook County Chamber Christmas Parade on Friday, November 29, kids of all ages got to visit with Santa Claus and his sled dogs at Stone Harbor Wilderness Supply. Little Rio had fun trying to get his brother Nico to smile while sitting with Santa.
Above: The Chamber Christmas Parade is small but colorful with an appearance by the very- Scandinavian Sivertson Gallery crew who won the “most festive” award. Right: The “Best Overall” Traveling Gnome trophy once again went to Joynes Ben Franklin with its gingerbread theme.
Christmas shopping was fun at the Hovland Town Hall on Saturday, Nov. 30. These shoppers check out felted gnomes made by Mary Jo Flack in the “Land of Hov.”
Mittens make the perfect holiday gift. Gail England was one of the many talented crafters at the Community Center Christmas Craft Show.
