Chaffee County Winter Farmer's Market

The Chaffee County Winter farmers market will operate on Saturdays beginning November 15th through December 20th at the Chaffee County Fairgrounds. 

For those of you who have shopped the winter market before, you know how crammed we were inside at the Scout Hut. This new space will give us so much more room to expand and host new vendors! We already have 35 vendors signed up for this exciting event!

Chaffee County Fairgrounds, 10165 Co Road 120, Salida.

The Noteables

The Noteables, a local women’s chorus, will present their winter concert series, We Are the Lights. 

Under the animated direction of Linda Taylor, the chorus will perform a wide variety of seasonal music, including unusual arrangements of Christmas carols, winter ballads, humorous selections and songs of peace, light and love.

We start out with The Little Drummer Boy, partnered with Peace on Earth, followed by Something Told the Wild Geese which tells the poignant story of their winter flight. I Saw Three Ships, Carol of Winter Peace and One Small Lamb bring the Christmas story alive.

The hilarious, bluesy, Candy Covered Gingerbread House, will bring you back to the warm memories of a Christmas kitchen. Put on your dancing shoes for Sing We Now of Christmas, Rise and Shine, We Are the Lights and the quirky One of Those Southern Winters. Plus, many more!

The show will feature Oso Blanco on drums, Joan Ware on solo piano, Kathleen Chiras on electric bass and flautist, Brenda Covert.

Music is healing and has the ability to bring perfect strangers together in laughter, joy and harmony, something that The Noteables are famous for! Join us during these difficult times for a concert series that will lighten your heart and put you in the Christmas spirit

Suggested donation is $15 to help pay for the cost of music and publicity. For more information, call Linda Taylor, 719 539-2428. Tax deductible contributions are appreciated. Visit www.salidasings.org
