Page 6A - The News - Friday, December 7, 2012 I'm late with my ser- mon this year. Last year, I started in mid-Novem- ber urging you to take part in our Christmas pa- rade, hoping you would decorate something and ride in it, but at the very least bring your family out and plan to stay all day, Saturday, Dec. 8. I also said working on projects like the parade, or even just coming to see it, then hanging around for the fun, gives you a chance to mix with people you don't always get to be around, and how all this just makes everything better in a small town like ours. One reason I'm late is because I've been busy. The other reason is I don't think you need as much reminding as you used to. More and more of you are coming to- gether and making good things happen on your own just because you feel like it. One example of that is the Christmas Art Show the Star Harbor water- colorists just up and cre- ated for the Historical Loretta Humble Around About Museum on Main Street. It is wonderful. Don't miss it. Another example of the self-starting commu- nity spirit that is becom- ing more common around here: We wowed East Texas with our scarecrows, and were encouraging everybody to do the same with snowmen, but discov- ered making snowmen without snow was much more difficult. I was about ready to give up on the project and tell people I understood it was too hard. But folks have plunged in, used their imagination, and snowmen are popping up all over town. So I'm going to make it short: Please show up. You will be so glad that you did. Plan to stay around town all day. There will be lots of things happening down- town and around town as well. You can get your picture made with Santa and Frosty in the pocket park. That great face painter that was here in July will be back. There will be live music, re- freshments, vendors, sales and drawings for prizes all over town. Please enjoy the fun, meet your friends, maybe make some new ones, and shop our local shops. Be sure and check out the new Tus- cany Spa down by Brookshire's, which is having its grand opening Saturday, with free food, prizes, and fun. Then on the east side of town, Lindy Mall is holding their annual Christmas sale with wonderful goodies made by the vendors. I hope you will visit every one of our shops. And I hope you will do a bunch of your Christmas shopping here. The peo- ple who run these shops are a town treasure and deserve our support. They had the vision for Friends of Malakoff, and are its core. They would Santa Claus always makes an appearance at the annual Commerce Chnstmas Parade.
