It’s the weekend before Christmas, and appropriately there’s plenty of revelry on tap – along with a chance to help out a family that is experiencing a devastating loss. Here’s a selection of things to do in Red Bank this weekend.
Benefit for slain cabbie
Saturday 5 pm to 10 pm Red Bank Elks Club
A benefit will be held at the Red Bank Elks Club for the family of Anthony Hill, a longtime taxi driver for Red Bank Yellow Car Company who was murdered while on the job earlier this year. A full lineup of local bands will perform. (see story below and flier for the event. )
Ice carving free cocoa, treats, shopping specials
The downtown business org Red Bank Rivercenter is promoting a long list of offerings that will turn the downtown into a music filled, free cocoa, ice carving showcase.
Sunday 1-4 pm three locations
This Sunday, come downtown to witness a holiday/winter experience that you will not soon forget! Jimmy Chiappa from Jimmy’s Artistic Creations will create three ice sculptures for us here in Red Bank. He’ll be carving a snowman, a snowflake and the beautiful Broad Street clock – the one by Chocolate Works. Jimmy creates these sculptures from giant blocks of ice, using a chainsaw a chisel and other tools right before your eyes! Rivercenter says there will also be free hot chocolate (a boozy version for adults) and treats at participating stores all over downtown.
