The library will be decorated with roof lighting and large wreaths, and we will be lighting a stunning 20-foot Christmas tree at the beginning of the event. This gathering will give community members a chance to come together and share in the joy of the season. Attendees can look forward to festive decorations, music, and a friendly environment that encourages connection and celebration. Whether you’re interested in meeting new people or catching up with friends, Terrace Tidings provides an enjoyable way to embrace the holiday spirit while staying warm and watching the fireworks. Please note that children aged 1 to 16 must have a ticket for admission.
Specialty Cocktail: The Hot Tom & Jerry is a classic holiday cocktail that combines a rich, spiced batter with hot milk or water and a choice of rum or bourbon. The batter is typically made from a blend of eggs, sugar, and spices like nutmeg and cinnamon, creating a creamy and frothy texture. Served warm, this drink is often garnished with additional nutmeg or a cinnamon stick, making it a comforting and festive choice for chilly evenings.
