Thanksgiving
Time of the season
A harvest banner for the month. No separate community list. The music board stays the board. These are community places — a haunt, a maze, a light walk, a parade. Not music rooms, and not on the venue list.
Holiday Season
Time of the season
Tree lightings, light walks, parades, markets, menorah lightings, Kwanzaa, turkey trots, Nutcrackers, holiday shows, and New Year’s Eve in Riverside. These stay off the city board.
