Two
favorite Plainfield holiday events are set for today, even as
snowflakes lightly fall: the First Unitarian Society's annual Crafts
Fair and the SID's Horse-and-wagon rides.
FUSP Crafts Fair
Smart
shoppers have kept this annual event on their calendar for years. Area
craftspersons -- including many from Plainfield -- offer their best
creations for holiday gift giving (or as a gift for yourself) in the
Parish Hall and the educational wing. (I never miss the opportunity to
sample the delicious homemade baked goods offered as snacks in the Stevens Room.)
Items
offered include jewelry, pottry, gourmet food, natural personal
products, stained glass, knit accessories, Fair Trade products and
special accessories for the season.
Raffle tickets will be available for purchase at the door for 18 items donated by crafters. (You need not be present to win.)
The Crafts Fair runs Saturday (10 AM - 4 PM) and Sunday (11 AM - 4 PM).
FUSP
(First Unitarian Society of Plainfield) is at 724 Park Avenue. Parking
available on the street or in the public lot across Park Avenue.
SID Wagon Rides, Santa's Visit today
The Plainfield SID's 9th annual horse and wagon ride takes place today, from Noon - 3:00 PM.
There
are two staging locations: Downtown at the Parklet near McDonalds on
West Front Street and on South Avenue at Plainwood Square Park (between
Leland and Terrill).
Join
in this community fun day of an old-fashioned horse & wagon ride,
with goody bags for all participants courtesy of Plainfield SID
merchants.
Bring your camera and take pictures of the kids with Santa (Downtown: Noon - 1:15 PM; South Avenue: 1:45 - 3:15 PM).
The
rides are free and open to all. Entry forms at both locations will be
put in a drawing for a Giant Toy-Filled Christmas Stocking, to be
awarded at Plainwood Square Park at 3:30 PM.
