Boxley’s Place in North Bend will be hosting one of the night’s big stars Saturday, and Santa, too. While most families will be lining up outside the restaurant around 5:30 p.m. Saturday for photos with Santa in the fireplace room, a slightly older crowd will be anticipating the appearance later that evening of singer Kelly Eisenhour. “She lives right here in North Bend, and she’s kind of a rock star,” says Danny Kolke, Boxley’s owner and coordinator of musical artists appearing in local venues throughout the evening. “I’m really excited she’ll be here!” The Boxley’s Music Fund is sponsoring Eisenhour’s appearance, as well as music at the North Bend Bar and Grill and Pioneer Coffee. Kolke is also excited for the festivities that will shed a new, and charming light on the community he’s been dedicated to for years. “I think it’s really important to light up the town,” he said, “It just looks pretty, and the town needs it.” “He’s looking to support and help every business in our downtown,” city economic development director Gina Estep said of Kolke.

North Bend Holiday business events 3 to 8:30 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 8, on North Bend Way, between Bendigo and Ballarat North Bend Way will be closed to traffic and many of the downtown businesses will be celebrating the holidays with special events, including: Twede’s – Live Christmas Carols, 6 to 9 p.m. Moon Valley Massage & Healing Garden – Special, $10 off a next massage, $15 off gift certificates North Bend Bar and Grill – Homemade hot buttered rum, $5, or $1 hot chocolate for the kids Singletrack – Spin the wheel for a discount coupon for bikes and accessories Boxley’s – Live music and Santa photos
