5 Things (Christmas Lights) To Start the Day, Dec. 4

Here are five things to start your day in Beverly:

1. Cape Ann Waldorf is hosting a tour and Q&A session with faculty for perspective parents. The tour will visit Kindergarten and Grades 1, 3, 5 and 7 during morning main lesson, a 2-hour uninterruped block of time during which lessons come to life through imagination, art, music and movement. Learn more about the open house here.

3. Don't forget: this week is the city's last week of leaf pickup. 

4. If you've put up your Christmas lights, be sure to snap a picture and enter your home into Patch's Deck the House contest. The winner receives $100,000 for their hometown's school system, and finalists receive $500 toward their electricity bill. Enter here. 

5. Another warm one: Patchy fog before 9am. Otherwise, increasing clouds, with a high near 52 degrees.
