Wishing You A Happy Holiday Season OpinionOpinion THE BAYSIDER, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 25, 2014 SECTION A, PAGE 4 Opinion Merry Christmas As this paper arrives in the mailboxes of our readers and on the shelves of the local businesses, the Christmas season will be in full swing. Over the last few weeks we’ve brought a few sto- ries of holiday cheer to our pages and we are hope- ful that everyone settling in to read this paper has a truly blessed Christmas this year. As another year comes to a close, we know things haven’t always been easy. Tough economic times have taken their toll on many of our readers and many folks throughout the state, country and world. But as we go about our Christmas Eve to- night, let’s take a moment to remember that we all do have very much to be grateful for this holiday season. Here’s hoping that family members far and wide are able to come together and spend the holidays in a happy place. If you are hosting, may your home be filled with warm tidings and joy for the season. If you are traveling, may you find your way safely over the roads, rails and airways of the world to the destination of your choosing. Here’s our hope that across the windswept land- scape of the Lakes Region, the Christmas spirit continues to flow. Generous donations to local charities and food banks have helped to bolster the holidays for many people less fortunate in our com- munities and to all who have taken time to donate and support the wonderful organizations that bring this holiday cheer, thank you from the entire com- COURTESY PHOTO munity.
