It’s Christmastime in the city

People passing and those entering Holyoke Marketplace this time of year meet smile after smile as Salvation Army bell ringers ring in some holiday cheer for a good cause. Kimberlee Bennett, at left, drops a donation into the red kettle as she is serenaded with a Christmas carol courtesy of bell ringers, from left, Yaretzi Flores, Minnie Rodriguez, Joaquin Flores and Kathy Cook on Monday evening, Dec. 13. Though there hasn’t been much snow to hear crunch yet, bell ringers are doing their part to increase the holiday spirit. Soon it will be Christmas Day, and volunteer opportunities to be bell ringers are available through Thursday, Dec. 23.
