Owego’s Annual Holiday Showcase will be held on Saturday, November 10, from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm in downtown Owego. Santa and Mrs. Claus will arrive in downtown Owego by horse-drawn carriage at 11:30 am and will be available for photo opportunities with the kids. Activities include horse and carriage rides, caricature drawings, a variety of music and Christmas displays around town, and shopping and dinning in all downtown shops and restarunts. Nothing says Christmas like The Hand of Man and River Rose Café. Enjoy magnificent displays of holiday splendor, featuring over 10,000 ornaments. Receive a free gift with a $50 purchase or more.

It’s a Holiday Mermaid Beach Party at Tender Loving Care by Maureen on Lake Street. Come in with a mermaid costume and you will receive a free gift. There will be free refreshments and 20% off all sweaters, ponchos, wraps and scarves. And free giveaways every hour. There are several major parking lots in the Village of Owego: the Hyde Lot (behind Chemung Bank), the Tioga Theatre Lot (behind Tioga Theatre), the Court Street Lot (on Court St.), the County Lot (on Park St. between CVS and Estey, Munroe & Fahey Funeral Home), and the County Office Building lot (off Academy Street). Schedules and brochures will be available at all downtown merchant locations.

Phone Santa 625-HOHO

Jeff Gural, owner of Tioga Downs Casino Resort, last month presented a check for $66,500 to the Southern Tier Veteran’s Support Group. The funds were raised at a fundraising concert featuring Wynonna & the Big Noise, which took place in July at Tioga Downs. “There is no monetary amount that could ever repay the veterans of our region for their tremendous ser-

vice and sacrifice,” Jeff Gural, Chairman of American Racing & Entertainment, said. “It is a great honor to host this benefit concert each year, and give these brave men and women the support and respect that they are due.” Tickets to the concert were $15 each. For every ticket sold, Jeff and Paula Gural donated an additional $15 to the cause.

Despite a very busy schedule, Santa Claus has been persuaded by the Apalachin Lions to take phone calls for three evenings in early December. Santa has been happy to do this for many years for the children in our area for many years, and he is looking forward to talking to his many young friends again so he will know what they want for Christmas. To talk to Santa, call 625-HOHO (6254646) between 6:00 and 8:00 pm on December 3, 4, or 5.
