Holiday Season in the Village of Parks off and running (Weather permitting)

There are some great events are happening in the Village.  These events include those sponsored by our local schools and churches as well as Miami-Dade County and Village of Palmetto Bay official events.  The unusually rainy December is impacting some of these events such as requiring the rescheduling of the Palmetto Bay Downtown Holiday Event - originally scheduled for Saturday, 12/5.  It will now be held on Tuesday from 4 to 8 PM. 

Tuesday evening kicked off with the Palmetto Bay Business Association Social.

The Deering Estate held its Tree lighting Ceremony Friday, December 4, there was fun for all ages.  Note that the holiday season lasts throughout the month.  Check out the Deering Estate.

Alexandra and I then moved on to the family dinner dance at Christ the King Lutheran Church.

UM Board of Trustees Member Ed Williamson led us in 'throwing up the "U"'. We are excited about the hiring of Mark Richt as the new UM Head Coach.  Ed promised us that UM got itself 'a Cadillac' of coaches in Richt.  Ed Williamson is unquestionably qualified to render such an opinion.
