Wild Apple Tree Release Workshop
Round up your "work gloves, loppers, bow saws and heavy duty snippers." And your heavy duty footwear. Meet in the Murdock Woods at 1 p.m. on Nov. 10. Rain or shine. Don't ask any questions. That's all we can tell you ... just kidding. (We guess.) Try your hand at savvy apple tree pruning techniques, essential to clearing overgrown brush and managing the woods at large. In other words, prepare for some hardcore service-learning, Middlebury Area Land Trust style.
Turkey Bingo in Middlebury
Let's face it: buying your Thanksgiving turkey at the grocery store is, like, so last year. The only way to truly savor the succulence of your Turkey Day feast is by scoring it in the most ruthless and primordial of man's endeavors. No, no, no, put away your bow and arrow. That's for weaklings. We're talking about bingo. Turkey Bingo, on Wed. Nov. 14 at 6:15 p.m. at the American Legion. Stick around until 7 p.m. for cash prizes (as if the bird and the glory weren't enough).
Open Mic and Concert in Bristol
If you're intent on drawing out the rockstar within, display your talents at the Walkover Gallery in Bristol at an Open Mic and Concert, held for the benefit of the Have a Heart Foodshelf. (Translation - if you don't go, you're heartless.) The open mic at 6 p.m. precedes the concert which begins at 7 p.m., with a suggested donation of $5. Refreshments will be provided by Almost Home market as well as local bakers. If you manage to escape without humiliating yourself beyond all redemption, round out your whirlwind Bristol adventure by hightailing it to the American Legion Post 19 for a craft fair and bake sale, being held from 2 to 8 p.m.
