This year, with Covid under reasonable control, we will be back on the Green for the Lighting of the Green. We are proud that we were able to do this event virtually in 2020, but seeing Santa in person is much better.This year, Lighting of the Green will be on Friday, December 3, starting at 6:30 PM. The parade and Santa's arrival will start at 7:00 PM. The will be performances at the Canfield Methodist Church by the students from C. H. Campbell and Hilltop starting at 7:30 PM. Santa will greet children at the Township Hall, and there will be carriage rides around the Green. Both the War Vets Museum and the Dispatch Center will be open for tours. Finally, refreshments will be available at the Victorian Tea House.
The Regional Chamber of Commerce held its semi-annual Canfield meeting (Good Evening Canfield) and surprised its MC, Craig Olson, with the Spirit of Canfield Award. Instead of the traditional award ceremony, Craig was treated to a roast from several of his close friends, including his own son Kip. Craig has been active in the Chamber of Commerce for years and frequently is the MC of their events because of his humor, good-natured kidding, and respect by his peers in the community. 
The Canfield Rotary Club has, for the fifth year in a row, broken the district record for highest per capita giving to the Annual Fund of the Rotary International Foundation. The club's per capita giving was over $785 for 2020-2021, which is more than three time the next highest club in the district. Foundation Chair Randy Swartz set a lofty goal of $40,000, and with his hard work and the generosity of our club members, we far exceeded that goal!
