Don’t miss Little Traverse History Museum’s Annual Christmas Open House, Friday, December 12, 6-8 p.m. They’ll be celebrating America’s 250th with a red, white, and blue Christmas, featuring a collection of White House tree ornaments. Howard Richards will be playing carols on the Hemingway piano, and Santa will visit. The St. Francis fourth graders will tell a bit about Christmas in Petoskey long ago, and we’ll be serving cookies, hot cocoa, and Christmas punch.
