Editor's Picks for Saturday: Craft Fairs, Winter Wonderland, Rival Hockey Game and Island Tale
The Framingham Auxiliary Police Department will host its 26th Annual Craft Fair today at Keefe Tech from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Although the weather forecast may be frightful to some ... many of Saturday's events should be okay as the heaviest snow is not expected until late Saturday night and overnight into Sunday morning.
There are already a couple of storm changes. Click here to view them and to add new ones.
Below are my editor's picks for things to do today, Saturday, Dec. 14. I wish I could attend all of these events, but it just is not possible.
Organizers: feel free to send Patch photos from your event and will publish. Email Susan.Petroni@patch.com
