Hello to all of you layered-up upstate dwellers. Welcome to the first weekend CNY events guide for November. Thank you for electing to take a gander at this non-partisan list of fun options you can elect to do, and you won’t be criticized if you choose to do your own thing.
In case you’re looking for things to enjoy, it’s perfect time of year to cozy up to a play or to enjoy a walking the woods. Concerts are not limited to folk lovers, punk rockers or true blue rockers. For those looking for great games or a run through the park, there are a couple options as well.
Or just eat comfort food and prep your gut for Thanksgiving.
