Many households, lots of stuff!

We will also provide signage to be positioned at key intersections on the perimeter of the neighborhood.If you¹d like to take part, please contact Leslie at 962-2477 so that your address will be included on the list of participating households.

Caroling in the Neighborhood
Wednesday, December 27th, 2006Four carolers gathered and headed up Newhall Street in the patchy evening mist (and 42 degree weather) from house to house, sometimes climbing onto porches to sing. With banjo a’strumming (a la Hilary) and bells ringing, several neighbors came out and a one even sang with us in German. After winding around the Cambridge Woods streets for 2 hours, our evening of song came to an end.
