Inside this issue, we invite you to catch up with the Moore Middle School Band, take in the embrace of the holidays by the Redlands downtown area, stop in at Peek Inside and The Frugal Frigate, enjoy Martha Green’s cookies as well as the fare at Joe Greensleeves. And, with the assistance of Shelli Stockton and Carolyn Whetzel, we are delighted to include highlights from the Redlands YMCACA Home Tour program in our magazine. A few more notes: our writer Carla Sanders offers up a Christmas story to share with your children or grandchildren, and, when you get your 2012 calendars, be sure put a Save the Date note on April 14. That’s the when the Rotary Club of Redlands hosts its Red Wine & Blues event; more information at www.redwineandlbues.com. But for now, happy holidays!
