There\u2019ll be storytelling by some special guests, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFamily-oriented fun will continue to be part of this\nholiday event, including face painting by Bingo The Clown, singing by my kids\nand even a musical performance by a veteran who recently performed at the\nThanksgiving Polka Weekend in Cleveland, Ohio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHopefully, Santa Claus will take time out of his busy\nschedule to attend. I also want people to know that as with the last nine years\nI\u2019ve held this event, no town funds are being used for it whatsoever, as this\nis not a government-based event. I encourage all residents of Verona, no matter\nwhat your age is, to stop by and take part in the festivities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The holiday party for all town of Verona residents has free\nadmission and snacks will also be available. If able, attendees are asked to\nbring a canned good, as a collection will be taken and given to the Verona Food\nPantry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information, visit fritzscherz.com, email Fritz at\nfritz@fritzscherz.com or call 315.363.3509.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Any business wishing to make a donation are asked to contact\nFritz at the information immediately above.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fred \u201cFritz\u201d Scherz, Jr., councilman on the Verona Town Board, will hold his 10th annual holiday party for all town of Verona residents from 1 to 3 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 8, 2019, at the Verona Fire Hall, 5555 Volunteer Ave., Verona. \u201cThe last nine years I\u2019ve held this community event, it\u2019s been a success because [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":65039,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[23816,8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-109987","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ff","category-top-story"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/109987","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=109987"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/109987\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/65039"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=109987"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=109987"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=109987"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
