WinterFest 2015 planning underway Holiday Events Organizers of this popular hol- iday event have announced this year it will be on Sunday, Decem- ber 6, 2015 from 2:00pm – 6:00pm in the St. Johns Plaza by the clock. The theme is Victorian/Edward- ian/Industrial and the goal is to raise funds to help install the Edge- water Lamppost in the downtown business district. This year’s tree will be dedicated to Rie Newman, and the event to Laura Woodruff who both helped create WinterFest2014, and who both died this past year. There will also be a “Rie” hat contest that will include this year’s event theme. Those who knew Rie, knows that she loved hats. Grand Marshall is Gary Boehm, long time community resident and activist, who has been instrumental in the Cathedral Park Jazz Festival and the St. Johns Boosters. Major sponsors are Plews Brews, who will be hosting a beer garden and working with Richard Colvin the Standard Keys and Pastor Josh Hawk and his Baby Grand Piano on entertainment. Annie Allerdice said, “We want to thank the St. Johns Boosters for their support last year. We have since moved the event back to its independent status so it can work with all the community organiza- tions equally without bias and al- low each organization to focus on their own goals without being con- cerned with running this event.” Mixtress Spruce, aka Becky Lar- son of Larson Biters Fame, heads our tree team, which will be head- ing for the hills on November 29, with her merry men and women to bring one of those wild free rang- ing Spruce Trees back to the Plaza. Allerdice said, “You the Commu- nity get to decorate the tree. Or- ganizers will supply the Lights.
