CATSKILL - Not to be outdone by their neighboring city across the river, Catskill held its first-ever village-wide holiday celebration on Saturday, December 5. "A Day in December," the Daily Mail reported today, featured activities, shopping and entertainment for all ages, including a performance by the Zucchini Brothers and a showing of The Grinch That Stole Christmas at the Community Theater on Main Street.

"Parents brought their children downtown to take pictures with Santa and for sleigh rides down Main Street," writes Doron Tyler Antrim. "The day also featured bicycle and sled giveaways at the Catskill Village Police headquarters, sponsored by Sawyer Chevrolet... Many of the vacant storefronts on Main Street were put to good use as housing for the day’s vendors, which were selling holiday ornaments and goods, as well as specialty products."
