Historic Elk Rapids Town Hall

12/07/2024

Great turnout this morning for our neighbors up the street at the Elk Rapids Cinema, who hosted a free showing of "The Snowman," a lovely animated short released in 1982. A perfect choice for a snowy morning! Along with the film they served up free yummy treats and hot cocoa. Thanks Maryanne, Kali, Ellie, and all the great folks who keep the popcorn popping and movies lighting up the screen.

Did you know that just like the Cinema, the Town Hall is run by a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit? We are just a couple of the many non-profits who diligently work to enrich the community in Elk Rapids, and we rely on the support of patrons and volunteers...like you! If you would like more information about volunteering with the Historic Elk Rapids Town Hall Association, let me know by sending an email to [email protected].

Now doesn't that look cozy? The Rotarians are busy getting the Hall ready for their annual Christmas party and charity auction Tuesday evening. This year, proceeds raised from the auction will benefit the great work being done by Acme Christian Thrift Store and Food Pantry, Good Samaritan of Ellsworth, and the Community Cupboard Food Pantry of Elk Rapids. Thanks, Elk Rapids Rotary Club for supporting those in need!

Members of the public are welcome to stop by around 6:30 for the auction itself - there are sure to be some fantastic items up for bid.

What's that I spy on this cold winter's night? Why, it's a candle in the window! A sign of hope in the bleakest of times. Come join your community for the newest production from the Elk Rapids Players, "A Candle in the Window" by L. Don Swartz.

"A small group of weary travelers discover the power of the
season while trapped in a lonely train station on Christmas
Eve. As a blizzard rages outside, the troubled people are
forced to turn to each other for companionship."

There are plenty of showtimes, and tickets still available - get yours at the door or online at elkrapids.booktix.com.

They say "it takes a village" and that was certainly true this morning as impromptu volunteer Beth Cron showed up shovel-in-hand to help clear the sidewalks and steps for tonight's big show. Thanks Beth!

Congratulations to team "Nice to Meet Yous" for their dramatic overtime win at November's Community Trivia event, hosted by the Elk Rapids Players. Look at that rambunctious (and ever-expanding) trophy! Taking a trivia break in December to make room for "Candle in the Window," but the competition heats up again in January. Always a great time. Stay tuned!

Yesterday our volunteers helped spruce up the HERTHA Hall. Thank you it looks Beautiful. Also though we would like to thank the Elk Rapids Garden Club for making it easy, by planting our gardens over the years with Perennials. It takes a village!

A big Thank You to Blue Finn painting Co. Is Overdue! They painted our hall entry in April for free, that is no charge👏🏼👏🏼. They do beautiful work, so think of them for your next painting needs. It’s great to support companies that give back to their community. Thank you Nick! We are forever grateful. The HERTHA Board.
