This is the weekend to make Cramahe Township your place to be, especially if you want to get a jump on that Christmas list.
Christmas in Castleton and Hoselton Studios will both be welcoming customers on Saturday and Sunday.
The Christmas in Castleton Show and Sale is a new venture and holds plenty of promise. Host Lana Taylor-Mills has been rounding up a fine group of creative vendors for this show in the Castleton Town Hall. Painting, photography, pottery & glass, birdhouses & feeders, Christmas wreaths & urns, jewellery, knitting, wood carving, handmade soaps, cards & paper, lavender, placemats, table runners, Christmas crafts & maple products will all be on display from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sunday. Admission is free.
Hoseltons is holding its pre-Christmas half-price sale. Jan Hoselton promises the sale will be an event to remember. Along with the enticing 50% off on showroom items, their environmental Trees for Life Program will be available at 25% off.
The studio has chosen the Northumberland United Way 2009 campaign as its fundraiser.
Limited edition Inuksuks will be sold and one of them will go in a silent auction on Saturday under the supervision of United Way Chair Bill Patchett.
And if you get hungry while you browse the shop, Black Dress Catering is selling pulled pork and hot dogs with the proceeds being donated.
On Saturday only, shoppers will have some tough choices as two local churches are running their annual teas and bazaars. If its home-made or home-grown that you want, or simply a cup of tea and a treat then head to Salem United Church on County Rd. 2 east of Colborne between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., or to Castleton United Church in the north end of the hamlet between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.
In Colborne, those with a more modest budget may find that perfect gift at the Colborne Second Helpings grand opening fashion show from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The show marks the move to its new Victoria Square location
The doors to the township are open as these enthusiastic entrepreneurs await your arrival.
