We often hear the refrain "think global, act local". One of the goals is to encourage support for small, local businesses. We have a chance to put those words into real action this holiday season. Our own Ruston-Point Defiance Business District is hosting an Open House on December 5th and 6th. Our local shops are going to stay open late, Santa with wander through and there will be warm cider that Friday and Saturday night.To top it off, the District is hosting a tree lighting ceremony for the Ruston Christmas tree at 51st and Winnifred at 6 pm on Friday, December 5th. Santa will stop by, we'll sing some carols and welcome in the season with friends and neighbors.
It's a great chance to build our local tax base, support our neighbors who put their livelihood on the line in this community and put our words in to action ~ not to mention a fun way to start the holiday season. Hope your can join us!

Thank goodness we still have our Christmas tree! And a wonderful place to call home.
Bring us your voices! Meet under (or close to ) the Ruston Christmas Tree on Friday, December the 5th @ 6 pm to start our Holiday season together!
I have caroling books and would love our neighbors to have a rehearsal sometime before Santa joins us Friday. Check in & sign up at the store before the 5th and we'll make it work!
