There’s a growing anticipation of the holiday season here on the North Shore as we see decorations going up all around us and the chill in the air. It’s a beautiful time of year on the North Shore whether you live in Winnetka, Deerfield, Northbrook, Highland Park, Glencoe or any of the other unique North Shore towns.
As a North Shore Real Estate agent, I enjoy living and working on the North Shore and being a part of these vibrant communities, which is why I love to highlight what’s happening around town! If you’re planning on hosting loved ones within the next week or two for the Thanksgiving holiday, you may be wondering what you can do to create even more holiday cheer. Here are a few upcoming events you won’t want to miss!
