Luigi's Rancho hosts "Jazz+Wine+Tapas Wednesday" featuring Dennis Melillo, guitar and vocals, with Gary Staples, piano.
Starting December 7, 2016
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas - and Hanukah, Winter Solstice, and all the other holidays of the season. There's a full schedule of fun for you and your family in store, with theater (last chance to see Mary Poppins before she opens her umbrella and flies away, while the curtain rises on several other shows), live music, tree lightings, craft classes, and other yuletide celebrations. There's still time to find your fresh Jersey Grown Christmas tree - use our page to find a farm here in the Christmas Tree Belt - or to check out the Christmas in the Country Trail. Meanwhile, let's pause for a moment on this 75th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor to remember all who served in World War II and who have served since then to keep us safe. We salute you! Happy Wanderings!
