New Year’s Eve RevelryWild Women Revival
In a Laura Roth production, Laura Roth and Nancy Timpanaro-Hogan reunite as the “Wild Women” for a special New Year’s Eve show at 2 p.m. on Monday, Dec. 31 at the Wood Theater in Glens Falls.
They bring with them new music, never before seen come-dy, as well as glimpses of laugh-ter and pathos from their years of live performances, both sepa-rately and as an act.
Long-time musical arranger and director Catherine Reid joins Laura and Nancy for the show, a compilation of the most accomplished locally-based pro-fessionals of New York's Capital District.
Tickets are $28 per person, and can be purchased by calling the Wood Theater Box Office at 518-874-0800 or at www.woodthe-ater.org.
Manchester Music FestivalWelcome in the New Year
with glorious music, as the Manchester Music Festival (MMF) presents two New Year’s Eve concerts at 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. on Monday, Dec. 31, 2012 at the First Congregational Church in
Manchester.“MMF rings out the old on the
doorstep of the new, with its third annual New Year’s Eve musical bash,” said MMF Musical Director Ariel Rudiakov. “In original and arranged versions, the Festival Strings, a group of ten top play-ers from the NYC and Boston areas will perform music by Vivaldi, Strauss, Oscar Peterson, Lennon/McCartney, Mendelssohn, Tchaikovsky, and more, a lot more!”
The 4 p.m. family-friendly concert will feature an appear-ance by well-known regional actor, Peter Langstaff. Local theatre goers may recognize Peter, as he guides the audience through a musical tour of three centuries, assisted by the tal-ented students of MMF’s Michael Rudiakov Music Academy. Langstaff ’s charac-terizations have become a time honored tradition at the holiday concerts.
The festivities continue with the full evening concert at 6 p.m. Bass-Baritone Keith Kibler will join the Festival Strings and present works by Bach, Handel, and Mozart. He will also explore the music of Shostakovich and Holst, and perform popular standards. Keith is well-known as an inter-preter of baroque and classical arias and appreciated for his wonderfully elegant perfor-
mances.Everyone is invited after the 6
p.m. concert for refreshments, including chocolates and bub-bly (non-alcoholic) in the vestry.
The First Congregational Church is on Route 7A in Manchester, VT, across from the Equinox Hotel. There is ample, free parking. Tickets for the 4 p.m. Family Concert are $10 for adults and free for those under 18. Admission for the 6 p.m. con-cert is $27 and $10 for students with a valid ID. Tickets may be purchased at the Northshire Bookstore in Manchester, from the Festival office at 802-362-1956, online at www.mmfvt.org, or at the door.
First Night SaratogaJoin thousands of revelers for
the area’s biggest New Year’s Eve celebration, at the 17th Annual First Night Saratoga in downtown Saratoga Springs. This year’s theme for the fami-ly-oriented event is “Explore the Night.”
More than 14,000 people are expected to attend, making this the largest New Year’s Eve cele-bration in the state outside of Times Square in New York City. “It was a great success last year, and we expect an even bigger event this year,” said First Night Coordinator Jackie Marchand of Saratoga Arts. “We’re super excited about what we’ve put together.”
First Night kicks off at 5:15 p.m. with the national winners of Radio Disney’s “Next Big Thing,” 14 and 12-year-old sis-ters Chloe and Halle of Atlanta, who will perform at the Saratoga Springs City Center. The sisters will be available for
a Meet and Greet at 6 p.m. at the Saratoga Hilton following their performance. “We were very fortunate to get them as they begin their tour,” Marchand said. “They’re wonderful musi-cians.”
Admission is just $15, which provides attendees with a but-ton that allows access to all 35 venues and 70 performances. This year, First Night Saratoga is a “GE Kids in Free” event, meaning that each button pro-vides free access to one child aged 12 and under. Buttons can be purchased at the Saratoga Arts Center, Stewarts Shops, Adirondack Trust branches, at Price Choppers, and at Saratoga Guitar. They also can be pur-chased online at www.saratoga-arts.org. Marchand encourages people to get their buttons early, because they sold out last year.
Speaking of kids, the younger set will enjoy Buccaneer Bindlestiff ’s Swashbuckling Cirkus, featuring bumbling buccaneers who are feared and famed on every shore. This unique hybrid of circus, side-show and vaudevillanous vari-ety has toured 38 states, Europe, Asia, South America and the Caribbean. Warning: unattend-ed children may be conscripted and have to swab the decks! Kids can also pick up a pirate map and get stamps along the route.
Many favorite local bands will return this year. The Tartan Terrors, who played to sold-out crowds at last year’s First Night are back, as are Harold Ford and the Cash Band, the Ernie Williams Tribute Band, Alex Torres and his Latin Orchestra, and the all-woman Celtic group Triskele. Performing for the first time at First Night is the retro-60’s group Betsy & the ByeGons.
New this year is “First Fest,” a mini music festival featuring six of the best up and coming young bands in the area. First Fest will take place at the Saratoga Springs City Center from 6 p.m. until midnight.
The evening will also offer dance with the Ellen Sinapoli Dance Company, comedy, magic and more. Most of the enter-tainment takes place indoors. The celebrations wraps up with a giant laser light show at Congress Park.
The 15th annual First Night
Saratoga 5K Run, which starts at Skidmore College at 5:30 p.m., is already sold out with 1,500 runners signed up.
Shops and restaurants around the city will be open late to accommodate the revelers. The Capital District Transportation Authority (CDTA) will be run-ning free shuttles around the city until 1 a.m. A First Night button will be needed to ride the buses.
Volunteers are still needed to work at some of the venues. For working a three-hour shift, vol-unteers get a free button and First Night poster. To volunteer or get more information about First Night, go to www.sarato-ga-arts.org or call 518-584-4132.

Polar PlungeAfter all the New Year’s Eve
revelry, get an Adirondack style wake-up call on New Year’s Day, when Lake George hosts its annual Polar Plunge at Shepard Park Beach.
At 2 p.m., about 850 people will gather in swim trunks and bikinis to rush into the lake’s frigid waters to welcome in the New Year. While most partici-pants jump in and then get right out, there are always a signifi-cant number of people who actually linger in the icy water and swim for a while.
If you’re not brave enough to be a human polar bear, it’s still a very entertaining event at which to be a spectator. The Polar Plunge is considered the inaugural event of the Lake George Winter Carnival, which takes place weekends during the month of February.
Registration begins at 10:30 a.m. at Duffy’s Tavern. For more information about the Polar Plunge, call 518-240-0809 or visit www.lakegeorge.com.

“WE WILL BE SELLING THEMONEY TREE LATE SATURDAY NITE”
South Wallingford, Vermont(14 Miles South of Rutland; just off Rt. 7)
SCOOPCarmody Ford, located in
Greenwich, NY, held their sec-ond annual Drive for a Cause fundraiser on November 16th and 17th to help raise money for local six year old boy, Casey Wolff.
This past April, Casey was diagnosed with End-Stage Renal Disease, a disease that causes kidney failure and can only be treated with dialysis or trans-plant.
In August, Casey had both kid-neys removed at Children’s Hospital in Boston. With numer-ous trips to and from Albany Medical Center since then, Casey received a phone call on October 5th from Albany Medical stating that they had found a donor for him. He had his transplant per-formed back at Children’s Hospital in Boston and is recov-ering well!
With medical bills and trans-portation costs accumulating, Carmody Ford held the two day benefit to raise funds to assist the Wolff family.
A grand total of $2,255 was raised and donated to the Casey Wolff Medical Fund. The
amount raised was a combined effort between $5 donations by the dealer for every test drive that took place during the event, $50 for every vehicle sold, and raffle ticket sales.
Raffle and auction items were kindly donated by local business-es and the community, including: Espressohuis Restaurant, Saratoga Apple, True Value of Hoosick, Over Time Antiques & More, Capital Tractor, Penny Wise, Ruby Nimble Thimble, John Deere, Jeans Place, Old Saratoga Wine & Spirits, Greenwich House of Pizza, Schuylerville Pizza & Pasta, Subway of Greenwich, Lauren Turczak of Party Lite, Poppy’s Girls, YMCA of Greenwich, Weaver Mobil, Thruway Beverage, King Arthur Flour, Phil Giroux, Cars.com, Auto Trader, Advanced Auto of Greenwich, RBS Citizens, Byrons Market, Glens Falls National, Green Acres Tavern, Margaret Roberson, Boneyard BBQ, The Sales Team at Carmody Ford (JC Carmody, Mike Savage, Nick Vooris, Jessey Gargano, Craig Kyer, Todd Distazio, Chris
Weir, Rick McEachron, and Mark Robillard), Aubuchon Hardware, The Ice Cream Man, and Hannaford Supermarket.
The event also featured a cook-out courtesy of Boneyard BBQ, a bounce house for children, and music courtesy of 2 local radio stations that were on site for live remotes.
“What a great turnout!” said JC Carmody, President of Carmody Ford. “It was wonder-
ful to watch the community come together and help raise funds for little Casey,” stated Carmody. “A big thank you to the local businesses for their gener-ous contributions in helping us raise funds for Casey Wolff Medical Fund.”
To learn more about Drive for a Cause or the Casey Wolff Medical Fund, please contact Carmody Ford at (518) 692-2246.
