Mark your cal­en­dars, Harlem Town­ship Her­itage, Inc. (HTH) has sev­eral holiday-themed, com­mu­nity events planned for Decem­ber 14 & 15.

To lead off, on Fri­day evening, Decem­ber 14, the Finnish made hol­i­day movie, Joulu­ta­rina, will be shown at the Harlem Road United Methodist Church, 5546 Harlem Road, at 7 p.m. This movie is con­sid­ered by most “appro­pri­ate for all ages” but does carry a PG rat­ing for some the­matic ele­ments and brief smok­ing. The movie, which is the story of an orphan boy who became Santa Claus, was filmed in Lap­land and promises some spec­tac­u­lar scenery. There is no admis­sion charge for the movie and some light refresh­ments will be available.

Harlem Hol­i­days Part 2 will hap­pen on Sat­ur­day, Decem­ber 15 when HTH will host a crafts, hol­i­day, and other items bazaar at the Harlem Grange Hall, 12900 Cen­ter Vil­lage Road, from 1 to 4 p.m. If you’re look­ing for a hol­i­day gift, that Harlem Town­ship T-shirt you’ve put off buy­ing, or, rumor has it, some­thing delec­table to eat, come visit this sale. We have about 20 ven­dors par­tic­i­pat­ing in this indoor event.

To cap off the week­end events, once again HTH is bring­ing horse-drawn car­riage rides to the Com­mu­nity Park, across from the Fire­house, Ohio 605 South, from 4 to 6:30 p.m. on Sat­ur­day, Decem­ber 15. This year in, addi­tion to the lumi­nar­ies around the walk­ing track, the Harlem Road United Methodist Church will have a live Nativ­ity for rid­ers to enjoy as they ride around the dark­ened field. HTH will once again offer hot choco­late and cook­ies in the shel­ter to those who come for this event and will have a bon­fire where guests can get warm. There is no fee to ride in the car­riage, but those com­ing are asked to bring a non-perishable item or money dona­tion for the Harlem Town­ship Civic Association’s Help­ing Hands group.

If you’d like addi­tional infor­ma­tion on any of these offer­ings, please con­tact Vicki Tieche, 740–965-4535 or < mvtieche@att.net >.
