Christmas is coming, just a little more than a week away, and the schedule of activities is ratcheting up for the holidays.
Snowfalls brought postponement but the rush is on to get the rescheduled events into the remaining time for Christmas, along with the hope that extra weather problems don’t create more problems.
Stores — both “brick and mortar” retail outlets and those online — hope for throngs of shoppers for the final stretch of the Christmas season and Floyd-area stores report good crowds over this last days.
The folks at the Floyd Tourism Office have created a new look and feel to their weekly listing of events that we depend on for passing on what is happening, so you might see some changes but more information.
