Historic District getting in the holiday moodThursday, November 19
Fairhaven is special during the Christmas holiday season. The historic district with the old buildings from the 1890s just sparkles with decorated shop windows and holiday lights. By next weekend and the Holiday Walk A’bout the place will fully ready for shoppers. The Walk A’bout will be Friday and Saturday evenings just after Thanksgiving - a week from now. Shops will be open till 9 pm both nights with many featuring artwork by local artists. Refreshments will be served in many of them. Shelves will be stocked with gifts. We invite you to mark the dates and treat yourself to an enjoyable evening browsing the shops and galleries in the historic district. Paper Dreams is fully stocked with a great selection of Holiday and Christmas cards. The shop is renowned for its huge selection of greeting cards, cards, calendars and all gifts and things of paper. It is a perfect place to find just the right cards for any occasion. Plus they have that Mt. Baker fudge. Fairhaven Fitness helps zombies support kidsThursday, November 12
Many of us enjoyed the Thriller dance in the Pit Parking lot on Halloween eve with 60 some zombies and a good MJ imitator. They also performed downtown to an audience of several thousand. What is not generally known is, besides being a lot of fun, it was also a fund raiser for Blue Skies for Children and that the group rehearsed on the tennis courts at our own Bellingham Tennis Club/Fairhaven Fitness. Shown in the photo, from the left are: Ginny Spooner, Fitness Director of the Club; Megan (last name soon); Julie Guay, Executive Director of the Blue Skies for Children; and Robin Robertson, co-owner of the Bellingham Tennis Club/Fairhaven Fitness. We thank them all for their good work while having fun. Leaving FairhavenSaturday, October 31
After 34 years in Fairhaven around the property of the old Bob’s Southside Service station, the railroad cars are leaving. Two today and the last one on Monday. Pennsylvania bound to be placed in an old RR theme park. A huge crane picked them up - very carefully - and placed them on this oversized semi. They are taken to Burlington, about 20 miles south of Fairhaven, where they will be prepared for their trip east and placed on RR flatcars for the trip across country. Over the years this car had several businesses, the last being Boo’s Grooming Service up to a couple years ago. Lots happening in Fairhaven today. Check the next photos - below. |
